[QUOTE="Jena, post: 194100, member: 4514"] hi, this was very helpful input and i greatly appreciate it. susie good call on the reaction to the ssri's and anyone else who said that. this happened last year as i said. so it was only get this, 0.625 ml. she was a horror to herself for about 5 hours she's still hyped but coming down, more focused now. she cried relentlessly over something for about 25 minutes in car punching seats, etc. ok smallword great info on tricycle not sure if i'm spelling it right medication, remeron. i think i'm going to suggest that. doctor called me his partner who was on call this weekend. he said do nto give her anymore tomorrow that's it, prozac is over for her. he said that it's leaning towards BiPolar (BP) now, given this is second experience of mania when given ssri. last time was lexapro what a nitemare 5mg and 5 days of pure hell for her especially and me. ex is just totally in denial as per usual. i am def. going to mention remeron on monday when i call her dr. directly. we have tried to address sleep issue through therapy, meditation and yoga calming cd's baths, sprays, etc. reading nothiing worked at all, even herbal supplements like melatonin. we have also tried various drugs they all had horrible side effects on her. she also bed wets almost every night. she is just very hyper when she is up, hard to explain dancing and singing if weekend night and i dont' force down. very hyped if weeknight we can read a whole book together, one night she went through 8 small books. so, i think before i scream bi polar i think i may suggest or mention that other medication that smallworld suggested. sort of hit and miss game, right? now logically speaking as parents, not doctors and we've all been there.......if we try to treat the anxiety and sleep issue with for instance the ssri and now if i go into the other remeron and same affect. would it lead one to believe as a parent that BiPolar (BP) is the diagnosis? i don't want to believe it, yet anxiety the dr said is major component of BiPolar (BP). we may have it in our families yet everyone's too in denial to go to doctors.......lol i myself found out during summer i have Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), obsessional thinking part of it very much so. we have depression on both ends of our families, alcoholism, anxiety, panic attacks, suicides, one mood disorder. such a wonderful gene pool she got. thanks again for the info it is invaluable and i am beginning to think that we know more than the docs..........seriously though lol :) [/QUOTE]
