My son used Ritalin and a TCA imipramine the first year.
Ritalin alone for 3 more yrs, and Ritalin + clonidine for the last year.
He was never very happy or felt right on the Ritalin. He'd get headaches, tense neck muscles, short temper, etc. He had meltdowns when the Ritalin wore off. That was when I started looking around on our new computer...our first. It opened doors for me I never expected! Changed all of our lives in our family for the better! Removing transfats also was instrumental in his and our improvements. That was back in the late 90's.
Now we know what terrible things transfats do to people. But back then it was only in the research.
