I am SO CONFUSED! is this right? he is only 8, had a bad temper tantrum at school, admitted him back to the hospital, has ADHD, ODD, Impulsivity, hyper can't stop talking. His tantrum was his 1st big one & scarry, flipping chairs, telling everyone to shut up, trying to hurt himself & he was on tofranil at the time when the hospital put him on it. Now he is on the adderall xr 20mg, risperdol 1mg, clonidine 1.0. The adderall is hurting his stomach and STILL HYPER, non-stop talking. What do I do now? My boyfriend can't believe how much more he is talking, we went shopping & my son never stopped talking, only ate 1 bowl of cereal today & a pretzel from the mall. Can't get him to eat. Does this hospital really know what my son has just from being in their 2 times? 1 wk in October & just this last week. They would test his brain or any real tests & my boyfriend thinks that is wrong. Son is working w/ a new therapist. Tonight he was itching all over when I put him to bed. why? pls help
