[quote=Anonymous]DD will soon be getting desperately needed help. Therapy alone didn't work. What are some tips that you can share from your experiences or things you wish you had known? My plan is to supplement her treatment and therapy with low pressure outings, art projects, things she herself still actually likes to do sometimes and just see to it that they are done regularly. I will need to get her exercising. She desperately needs more activity. She actually wants to but is not motivated. Because of her ADHD, however, she paces a lot while happy and eats well, so she is not dealing with weight issues. I just know antidepressants work better when there is regular exercise. More listening. Less questions. Breathe. Know it will take time. Be aware. Anything else I should know? Thanks in advance.[/quote]
