[quote=Anonymous]Sorry that your family is going through this.  My child went through this too. DC was depressed, anxious, would not go to school.  When at school would go to nurse and ask to come home.  A change to mood stabilizer worked for us.  This year DC goes to school, interacts and has fun with friends and classmates and is able to function day to day.  I would say DC is 80-90 percent better than they were prior to  medicine.  There are still not great days from time to time but I feel like we have DC back.  When we first started medicine DC was dizzy and had headaches.  This went away. There was also some weight gain, but our child has not been eating before and this was positive to us.  I was also nervous and spoke with my pediatrician who comfirmed what  phychiartrist said.   If you are not comfortable I agree with earlier poster to get second opinion.  For us  change was not overnight.  Took about 3 months to get where we are. Hope things get better for your daughter soon.  Best wishes to you.[/quote]
