Guest guest Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 Hi Barb, My dd sounds like your son, when she is off all meds she acts better, but her OCD flares, and she panics. My son cannot go more than two days without meds or he is seeing things, and in a major panic. Maybe keep your son off meds for a while and see how he does.??(just a suggestion, if he seems to be doing well) Have you tried inositol or fish oil? I have heard of some getting great results, although, my kids are not lucky as far as homeopathic meds go. That is great news though! Now would be a perfect time to try something natural. Even melatonin for sleep or the Calms!! Hugs Judy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 Hi Barb, It sounds as though your son has come a long way and is doing better!!!(yay!!!!!) Is he sleeping at night too? I understand your take on meds! That is why my dd(11) with Bipolar as well is not on a mood stabilizer or anti-psychotic.She is only on an SSRI and clonidine. The meds actually made her worse. Different reactions for different kids. I would rather take her as she is than on those meds. She is a little more managable! I wish I could take my son off meds, but I can't. I'm so glad to hear your son is doing so well! I know how much you were struggling in the past!! (((((HUGS))))) Judy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
