[QUOTE="Jena, post: 411414, member: 4514"] hi thanks guys!!! :) haozi - yes i am totally going to go with-a doctor on medications, yet you know me i'll want to know what it is the risks, etc. the basic stuff. klmno - i wish you had found someone like this. i am trying to not get too excited. i'm hopeful. i can't explain this guy to you in words. he's totally down to earth yet knows his stuff inside and out and it's all just very basic stuff. yet he seems to have a real grasp on it all. and he seems to "get" her. knowone has ever been able to. as far as the medications go yea i know. i gotta work thru my fear with the mood stabilizer. ddd - keeping my fingers crossed. gotta tell you in the years i've been handling her "stuff" i've never felt as though i was getting anywhere. as many of us you feel as though you have your feet in the sand and your going nowhere just passing time, getting by etc. small - i know i feel it too. yet i can't let fear hold me back now. its going to be a while till we get a new pysch doctor on board anyway. i've already gone against portland hospital's advice and titrate down schedule on the zyprexa and kept her on longer. part of the problem with the zyprexa is it isnt' really making a huge hit on the anxiety anymore. her bodies so adjusted to the 10mg i have her on. iv'e gone down to 7.5 now for a week. also with difficult child she responds to ap's oddly when it comes to weight. it doesnt' evenly distribute it goes right to her belly. so after being malnourished and down to like 80something pounds at her height, now her stomachs totally swollen. it's out there. for me i dont' care. i'm still smiling while she eats. yet for her it's adding to the already depressed her and tha'Tourette's Syndrome not good the doctor agrees. also we dont' want her swinging other way into another eating disorder due to the swollen belly if you know what i mean. she's been complaining about it for weeks now. i'm ugly i'm fat, etc. i said your healthy and beautiful. she said mom my stomach looks like husband's lol. i said sit ups difficult child sit ups. i taught her yet u know her shes' too thick headed to do anything. another thing doctor picked up on is her large "avoidance" issues which we're in a circular motion of it all and it only makes her issues worse. i told the doctor yesterday i hope you know i'm expecting alot from you, i hope your everything you claim to be, so far i think your great, yet alot's riding on you and this type of therapy you claim will truly relieve her of alot of suffering she's been in. i think actually it's the perfect time for this, age 12 hormone's raging what better time now with her intelligence level also peeking to introduce such an abstract and multi layered thought process of changing her thoughts..... her'es hoping i have to say this has improved my mood. if she can get 5% of relief or difference i'll be thrilled. been too many years with no good answers and way too many problems. she wakes up each day covered in urine even though we're using pull ups that alone can set her mood for the day.
