My difficult child has been off her Paxil for her anxiety and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) for going on a month now and she is on .25 mg of Rispidol....apparently the Paxil had been working when I thought it really wasn't because some of her obsessive traits are really starting to show back up and her attitude is awful....the dr said that at such a low dose of the Rispidol I would probably not see any change and it would get worse before it gets better but omg its bad, but the Paxil made her stop eating and she stayed so tired which neither were supposed to be side effects of the medicine but as soon as we took her off of it she started eating again and wasn't so tired and I know every medicine effects everyone differently.
I just don't know if I should call the dr and see about getting her put back on something like Paxil maybe Zoloft or just wait until we up the dose of Rispidol, which she told me would also help not only with the rages but with the Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) issues as well.... I feel like I am in a dark tunnel and there is no light anywhere in sight
