[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 275245, member: 1991"] She need not be like this forever, althouigh medication can help. Medication is not a cure, however. It is management. And only in some cases. We do what we need to do, to bring about change. You said, "Her eyes turn strange and black" at times. Don't be alarmed or see this as a sign of something spooky - it is purely a neurological response to heightened emotion. The pupil changes size, it can either open up (making the eyes look black) or close up tight (making the eyes look paler, especially if the child has hazel or blue eyes). I have pale hazel eyes, I've been told (once when I got VERY angry with a uni lecturer) that my eyes turned pale green even though my voice didn't change from quiet tones. Taking her on your runs would be a good way to interact, but not if you'regoing to feel resentful. You do need your space. What about you going on TWO runs? One is for you, one is to include her. Or let her go with you on your run, but when you're lifting weights you have your iPod on and nobody is to disturb you. Somewhere in there should be something that cna work for you as well as work for her. Enjoy your weekend, you need the respite. Marg [/QUOTE]
