[QUOTE="keista, post: 453378, member: 11965"] When does school start? Are you all willing to wait it out to see if it is going to work for her at school? The harsh reality is that this medication might actually be good for at school, but also be causing more problems at the same time. I recently had a similar experience with DD1. She was put on Paxil, and it worked like a DREAM! Her anxiety became almost non-existent. HOWEVER, she started having new symptoms - odd dissociative type episodes. But when she wasn't having an episode it still seemed to be working great. I decided to take her off of it. The other option would have been to try and medicate these new symptoms - essentially medicate the medication. For DD1 that was not an option, but it may be an option for you and J. I honestly don't know. Check with the psychiatrist, and go with your gut. I've also come to the conclusion that summer is not really a great time to test medications, unless we're thinking one medication for summer, and a different medication for school. Since summer schedules are so different, it's like comparing apples and oranges. [/QUOTE]
