My daughter seems to get hyped and agitated from ssri's. She has been on ritalin and adderall and she is never agitated on these. She was taking paxil for 3 weeks and was so nervous and agitated, with no impulse control, that the doc took her off it. He did mention the fact that it is usually a transient side-effect, after the first 3-4 weeks it is gone. She now takes BuSpar and has no agitation and seems much more relaxed. But all the ssri's she tried seemed to agravate her. Good Luck with your son.
