My son has adhd and explosive disorder we are having a heck of a time with him he is medicated what should we do?

First, go back to : His child psychiatrist. Medications can cause increased agitation. Ask the older generation(s) on both sides of the family if there was anyone with a mood disorder or who exhibited behaviors you see in your child. He needs behavioral therapy as well as meds and a " section 504" at school with a behavior plan. If he's a danger to himself or others, he should have inpatient care.

Get guidance for you: Find a good child psychologist who can help your son, but also help you parent him. Learn what you can change, (slowly over time) and what you cannot change.

No quick fix: Children spend their childhood learning how to pay attention, how to behave, interact, and manage the stress of life. Some do this easily, others have severe difficulty. Labels and drugs do not treat the problem, they just provide structure and may assist the child with his search for maturity. Work as a team with the child to help him find what helps best.

May not be ADHD: As a general rule, children with ADHD are not explosive. In many cases when treated with stimulants, their explosions increase. they should be considered to have emotional dysregulation. Often they are anxioius individuals. get another opinion because this is not ADHD.
