[QUOTE="klmno, post: 146082, member: 3699"] Hi, Smallworld! Yes, this is his first AP. It has been worse than no medications- kind of like my desparation 2 years ago when I had NO CLUE. I raised lithhobid back up tonight- but, of course, it wasn't taking care of extreme signs anymore (which is why the AP was added), so I'm not expecting much- the zyprexa was great for getting difficult child in bed and "out" at night, but I can't do it at this expense to him. It truly felt like seriosly "drrugging" him and making him worse. I had mentioned seroquel to psychiatrist a couple of months ago, per suggestions from the board. He seemed confused over why I would asked about it, but when he proposed the zyprexa, he mentioned seroquel and risperdal as possible alternatives if this didn't work. I noticed on my web research that zyprexa was sometimes good for increasing concentration, along with reducing manic symptoms, so I thought maybe that is why he picked it (difficult child is having trouble at school and memory issues all around). Do you know if all AP medications help with that or is that unique to zyprexa? [/QUOTE]
