[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is she on any medication? [/quote] No. Hesitant to do so for many reasons. Worries it will suppress her appetite even more. She doesn’t experience hunger as it is and has fallen off the growth curve. She also may have a heart condition that would be exacerbated by any stimulants. She’s also still very young and hasn’t hit puberty yet, so I’m wary of putting anything in her system before she even hits her key growth stage. [/quote] I am confused by this because while those are valid reasons for not giving her stimulants, stimulants aren’t what treats anxiety disorders. Anxiety meds sometimes cause increased appetite and weight gain, but weight loss isn’t a concern. Can you get a definitive answer on the heart disease? That seems like a priority?[/quote]
