[QUOTE="robinm1922, post: 327074, member: 6423"] Sharon I feel your pain and your confusion on how to handle it. This was me last year with my difficult child. She was on Zoloft and it stopped working. We went from that to Celexa to Wellbutrine. Now she is on Wellbutrine and Celexa and doing much better. Not that it is all about the grades but for me it is an easy way to measure where she is in her depression. This last quarter she was one c away from honor roll and won student of the month. I hope the wellbutrine works as well for you easy child as it does for my difficult child. What I learned last year was at 15 (our girls are almost the same age) she has to be accountable for her grades, pass or fail she is the one that won't graduate with her friends. That is what motivated my difficult child, she wanted to stay in the same class as her friends. That and the right "cocktail of medications" got her through, just barely but she managed to pull it out. I have taken the same approach this year she is in control of her grades, I have to say she has been keeping up and doing homework. That is huge in itself! Depression is an awful thing I wish you the best of luck! Cyber hugs, Robin [/QUOTE]
