[quote=Anonymous]Your child's doctor will have the most important perspective, but since you are asking for others, I'll mention the advice I was given was to stay at the effective dosage for long enough to fully establish it as a baseline. Unless the SSRI was always intended as short-term (depression in response to a major loss or catastrophe), it is not something to decrease as soon as progress is attained. I see it has been three years, so perhaps it is time to explore that option now. Make sure that DD has had the counseling and CBT training, etc. so that she has the skills to deal with her condition as it is less managed by meds. Good luck![/quote]
