It is the nature of ADHD to be evident via children's behavior. By definition ADHD has an impact on behavior. Beyond saying this, without more detail I cannot comment on the situation to which you are referring.

s degree in psychology, as well as a history of the same symptoms. Other members of my family have these symptoms, as well. What you are describing sounds similar to a disorder separate from ADHD that I studied in my post-graduate classes called Intermittent Explosive Disorder (IED).
The Mayo Clinic (2016) describes IED as "repeated, sudden episodes of impulsive, aggressive, violent behavior or angry verbal outbursts in which you react grossly out of proportion to the situation.

Your son may well display ADHD, but it is important to arrange a thorough evaluation and not rush too quickly to the diagnosis. The on-line surveys can be useful tools to see if a person might display symptoms typical of ADHD, but a thorough assessment will consider a child's medical history, family history, current functioning at home and in school, possible alternative explanations for the symptoms identified on the surveys, etc.
by definition the tics are involintary and your son cannot control them. But tics can be exacerbated by stress, so that's why it's counterproductive to call attention to them. By the way, I'm assuming your son is not taking stimulant medication to treat ADHD. Such treatments can trigger (not cause) tics, usually in the facial muscles.
I also have been on 20mg Amphetamine Salts (Adderall) for over 5 years due to ADHD.

* Type 1 we call Classic ADHD. A type 1 has all the hallmark features of ADHD we discussed earlier, plus they're hyperactive and impulsive. They respond nicely to stimulant medication.

* Type 3 we call Overfocused ADHD.
My 5 year old son after breaking an arm had a tough time regaining fine motor skills. We received OT who noticed retained reflexes, low tone, difficulty tracking objects and hearing sensitivity. Waited 6 months for a neurology appointment who after hearing how well of a reader my child is (beginning 2nd grade level) insisted on us taking the GADS questionaire. We also had concerns about possible ADHD due to family history and observations.
It is likely that both of these symptoms are caused by fluctuating interference of the nerve transmissions along the visual pathways.
• Uhthoff's symptom, the worsening of symptoms with heat or exhaustion, is present in about 58% of cases of Optic Neuritis.
Now these symptoms apparently are not felt by everyone with ON but when you look at the percentages...I would think that your pain bears looking at by your neurologist or an Opthamologist.
I hate to tell you this, but it sure sounds like pregnancy to me.
By the way, I have seen several studies that show that sleep apnea can produce ADHD like symptoms. In fact, there have been several posters on here that have had sleep apnea, been treated and their daytime behaviors definitely changed. Has anybody ever commented about you snoring or breathing loud at night? "Regardless of type, an individual with sleep apnea is rarely aware of having difficulty breathing, even upon awakening.
In short, adhd symptoms. There was a reason why you started Vyvanse, and as you are now stopping it...those reasons are coming back.
If you have not done so....you need to read up on Ankylosis Sponilytis. It is a condition that will slowly get worse. And I am not sure that a muscle relaxer is recommended treatment. See - https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/ankylosing-spondylitis/diagnosis-treatment/drc-20354813 . And a muscle relaxer is certainly only short term treatment.
Depression and Anxiety are very common co-disorders of ADHD. And sometimes the bipolar diagnosis is not true due to the other symptoms. So its always worth taking a look at the difference between the two. Here are a couple of links for that.

"Treatment starts with controlling adhd symptoms." When a childs adhd symptoms "are reduced there usually is an improvement in ODD symptoms. Stimulant medications have been shown to decrease adhd symptoms, as well as those of ODD, by up to 50%."
In my opinion, the doctors have been not dealing with the cause of her ODD. Nothing you have stated is really recommended to treat adhd.
My recommendation for a good adhd medication starts with a good doctor.
