Re: What meds are they on?

[Guest guest]

For ourburts rispedal and abilify have been approved for kids

with developmental disorders. There seems to be more

weight gain with rispedal.

My daughter has been very irritable and aggressive this winter

we had the school stress (workload, homework) reduced and

I privately pay for a school aide to be at my daughter's

lunch twice a week to be a buddy so she copes better.

At home I parcel out computer and TV depending on if my

daughter stayed calm for a period of time. As soon as

she starts yelling I tell her I want to give her

computer time but she needs to talk to me and not

yell.

My daughter has periods of irritable compulsive behavior

where she is yelling at me to do something or buy her

something .....It is really stressful.

The more I structure her day the better, the more school

support I get the better. The more sleep she gets the better.
