[QUOTE="crazymama30, post: 318570, member: 3184"] That is such a small dose, I am with the one's who say start it before the weekend so you can watch her. I think what is going on with her maybe typical teen stuff, but for difficult child's it is just never that simple. I would have thought the Lamictal bump would have helped if it was going to, when we took my difficult child from 200mg to 250mg I could see a difference in a week. With that being said, I have heard some say that 200-250mg is the top theraputic dose. Not sure if I believe that as I have heard of people taking 400mg, but I am guessing you already know this. As for what else to try? I think at this point I would try the lexapro increase. Take it one thing at a time. If I get too many options spinning in my head it is not good for me, and therefore not good for my family (I realy can keep it together for them, I just fall apart here cause I can). If it does not work call the doctor and hopefully he will have another option in mind, from dealing with husband's & difficult child's psychiatrist many times they have a plan b and even plan c. Here's hoping the Lexapro increase does the trick! [/QUOTE]
