[QUOTE="totoro, post: 20049, member: 3155"] Smallworld I guess I didn't word my post very well duh??? I am not comparing ap's to mood stabilizer's, I was going with the "start low and go slow" theory. That they do indeed take time to fully get into the childs system, not that I didn't see any effect, I saw an effect the next day when she first started taking them. I was going with my psychiatrist's and others suggestions that by around 6 to 8 weeks you will see the full effect of what the AP is doing for your child, or not doing. Thus then you increase or stop the medication. My question was should the increase be helping more dramatically by now??? But I do see you point that it should be doing something by now. I just didn't know with an increase if it was so noticable in past experiences or what??? I don't know why but because this is our first medication trial it is hard to know when to give up and how hard to push the psychiatrist. I always feel like I am bugging them!!! Thanks Nancy [/QUOTE]
