Both of those sound like rebound effects from the medication to me. Our son had some pretty nasty rebound effects from Adderall so he gets an adderall kicker...

I also find it interesting in reading the posts how each kid handles the medications differently. Some have high metabolisms and it doesn't last as long, some...
