[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 477972, member: 1550"] As one who has been on as many or more medications than most of our difficult child</acronym>'s, my advice is: When Strange Behavior Starts When New medication or Dose Is Added, It's Probably the Medication. Why would she suddenly start talking gibberish? Maybe she doesn't want to take the Seroquel because it makes her feel funny. Although I never took this medication, I took medications like it and they were horrible for me. And several of the psychiatric medications have caused me to hallucinate. Sometimes it's the drug itself and sometimes it's the combination. Heck, my daughter started being unable to stop talking to herself on too much Concerta. It had never happened before and has not happened since. We tend to forget how incredibly powerful these medications are and even psychiatrists have been wrong about my medication experience at times and I had to wean myself off of drugs myself in order to feel normal again. What one person can take and finds helpful can make another person worse rather than better. If this were my kid, I would not want him on this medication, at least not at this dose, and I'd watch him very carefully if he was on it at all. JMO (with experience!) [/QUOTE]
