 5  behavior issues My son is 3 and was having extreme behavioral issues, nightmares, peeing his pants when he got mad, even getting kicked out of his preschool program. I had him evaluated by numbers of therapists, behavioral specialists, mobile therapists, and occupational therapists. He was seeing a therapist at daycare once a week along with a behavior specialist, and nothing seemed to be working, he was getting worse. I finally took him to a psychiatrist who reccomended this medication for bi-polar/ADHD. Within 2 days, his behavior had changed drastically. It is now only 2 weeks later, he is back in his preschool program, doing fantastic, getting smiley faces every day and has gone a whole week without one time out!!! He no longer pees his pants, he is easier to talk to and reason with, he listens, pays attention, and I am even getting compliments on his good behavior from the daycare. This medicine hasn't made him like a zombie, or made him lose his appetite. He is a much happier little boy, My life has changed drastically since putting him on this medicine. I felt bad putting him on it at first because he's only 3, but I couldn't be happier with the results. F 26 2 weeks
