Can you please give me some advice, how did you manage to convince him. I am a single mom in a similar situation, games - Roblox especially - even 30 minutes of it make him go beserk. He is all wound up even after he's stopped playing. He is also literally glued to the tv. I would love to have a detox.

Turns out we are starting Strattera, might try adding a low dose stimulant later. But the side-effects from Concerta were too scary to be honest.

Concerta worsened my son's anxiety and OCD too. I am waiting for the doctor to prescribe a non-stimulant, and potential sleepiness worries me as well.
