[QUOTE="Josie, post: 85925, member: 1792"] When my easy child was being treated for anxiety, we started with buspar. She had bad headaches from that so we tried a few SSRI's. She had side effects from those and around that time was put on amitriptyline for migraines. The amitriptyline worked well for her anxiety but it is not generally used for anxiety as far as I know. I think for kids, anxiety is treated with the SSRI's first. I was told they do not like to use the benzos with children because they are so addictive. [/QUOTE]
