[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 248171, member: 1550"] Antidepressants take 6-8 weeks before you see the full effects. A few days or even a few weeks isn't long enough. I've taken antidepressants since I was 23 (I'm 55) and I know the routine...lol. Switching them too fast can screw up your body or brain chemistry too--it's best to give each one at least the full chance and wean then go slow with chances. I hate when psychiatrists go too fast. That used to make me feel terrible. As an adult, I could say, "Um, no, we won't rush." But a child isn't allowed to, plus he doesn't know as much about his own body yet as you do when you're an adult. Also SSRIs can make some people worse. For the neuropsychologist testing, they may want to talk to you first. If not, you can probably leave. [/QUOTE]
