Ok so we are using a dose small dose of ritilin in the afternoon to help with the crashing. It seems to be better but I can't really say for sure. Is it me being more prepared for it? Or is he getting better on the meds. I have had two family that have told me that the Metadate can cause aggression. Which answers the question on whether did the meds make Brandon hate his brother more or was the sibling rivaly thing stronger because he never liked his brother or hated to have to share with his brother. I have a sister with two boys. The oldest hated his younger sibling I mean didn't like sharing or doing anything with his sibling and there was nothing they could do about it. I mean some kids can't handle siblings. They are older now so things worked out, but apparently a therapist told them their son did not care for his brother, he hated him.
So I guess I like to think the meds are making him angrier at his brother and that the meds were not making him more aware that he really hated his brother. That would be sad but yet Brandon has always been a very demading child so it could be. I will know in a few months. I won't be ajusting any meds until after the holiday. Just more confusing plus we are going on a vacation and that will be too hard.
