How do you feel about the results?
by the way: Asperger Syndrome it is a hard one.
most people can't pronounce it, or agree on how to pronounce it! LOL
It is considered an Autism Spectrum Disorder. I am not as well versed on the the Spectrum Disorders as others on the board.
Are you comfortable with the medication?
Have you researched Abilify? Did the Pediatric Nuerologist give you all of the info on it or answer all of your questions?
I honestly don't know how Abilify will affect you Daughter. Abilify does not touch my Daughter's ODD/Anxiety or impulsivity.
It helps with her Psychotic Features. K is on 5mg. It has caused weight gain and tics. But we have to keep her on it or her symptoms basically make it so that she barely functions in society.
Sorry my answers are likely not what you want to hear.
But it may be the medication she needs? I don't know, every child is different.
I do know there may be better medications out there for anxiety though.
There are also ways to deal with Anxiety without medications, therapist's can help a lot with suggestions and techniques for her. We are working on this for both of my Daughters.
