[QUOTE="Jena, post: 412083, member: 4514"] hi you will know mania when you see it and you wont' say is it that? LOL seriously though...... it can present as extreme aggitation, short temper, and cant' sit still OR it can be giddy, jumping around cant' sit still like driven by a motor literally. it'll be such a difference you won't have to say is it that? i put my difficult child on an ssri going back years ago when we were first beginning.... she was up for 3 days straight, ripping food out of cabinets, playing barbie in middle of night in living room. the poor kid was beyond miserable she cried alot and said i cannot sit still i feel so jumpy and not right. we took her off immediately. easy child is on zoloft. the hit the first dose was 25mg immediate calming effect on her, than the behaviors popped thru week and a half in once her body adjusted to them she began to fly again, raised it to 50mg. we're at that now for week and a half and shes' beginning to fly again now a bit. i think initially it can calm them, yet also its' mental they know their taking something so id' say yea it's partially the medication yet wait another week you'll probably see her fly about again a bit and than i'm sure your doctor will say titrate up a little. good luck!! never easy with-medications [/QUOTE]
