[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 85933, member: 1991"] This stuff is not good news for me - I've been planning on raising this issue again with difficult child 3's paediatrician, but everything you suggest has already been tried and we can't do it. He has adverse reactions to antidepressants and risperdal simply isn't effective enough. Plus, for us it's prohibitively expensive. it it worked, fair enough. But it doesn't. Not for us. Blast! However, the benzos as short term - that could work for us. difficult child 3 is getting better at managing his anxiety, thanks to his sessions of cognitive behaviour therapy, we would only need the benzo when we know he's going to have a bad day (such as when we took him to Rotarua, when he was terrified of vulcanism - he was feeling nauseous and really ill all day, could not accept that he could feel this bad just from anxiety). This is another wonderful example of someone's request being really helpful for others! Marg [/QUOTE]
