We tried Intuniv with DS2 when he was 6, and after an initial short period (2-3 weeks) of positive results, we had some pretty bad negative results. He was exhausted, depressed, and just "flat" on it. Honestly, it was a little frightening. Since then, we tried Zoloft (sertraline) with great results. It takes the edge off his anxiety.

living a crazy life with 3 boys
I am thinking now
of grief, and of getting past it;
I feel my boots
trying to leave the ground,
I feel my heart
pumping hard. I want
to think again of dangerous and noble things.
I want to be light and frolicsome.
I want to be improbable beautiful and afraid of nothing,
as though I had wings.
