[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 39174"] We, psychiatrist, todc and I, have used the insulin analogy. difficult child also knows that I take the same medication, lexapro, and has watched me take it. When she sees psychiatrist, she says she understands and she will take the medication. As soon as we leave the office, she's anti-medication. How do you do it...making the world shut down? When it comes to the medications issue with difficult child it is literally hours of intense raging...screaming, hitting, kicking, slamming, stomping, sobbing. I really think it has to do with difficult child feeling like she has no control over anything and this is something she can control...something that goes into her body. Yes, she's essentially shooting herself in the foot, but she is a stubborn little thing. No idea where she gets that from. [img]:wink:[/img] It doesn't help that she sees me taking all these new medications and the reaction I'm having to them. [/QUOTE]
