My 9 year old daughter who has ADHD and autism has had a rough school year and her mood and behavior have been soooooo hard. Her sleep has been pretty challenging, as well. We changed the timing of her Prozac to morning instead of evening and it made a big difference, much less waking up in the middle of the night. But daily life is still a struggle. Transitions, toileting, pickiness and eating, staying hydrated, etc.
When S. was first diagnosed with Adhd 3 years ago it was explained that stimulants are the best medication. However, she has never responded to Ritalin or Adderall. Neither change her behavior, mood, focus or anything notable for her (she says she doesn't notice a difference).
Finally we are going to try an alternative! Wellbutrin. So she will be taking Wellbutrin, Prozac and Guanfacine. Has anyone else tried Wellbutrin instead of stimulants or a similar medication combination?
