[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 300434, member: 7083"] Me: Does that mean you don't think it's anxiety or that you can't deal with having panic attacks all the time? difficult child: I can't deal with having panic attacks all the time. Me: So does that mean you want to try medications? difficult child: Yes. I can't do this all the time. Me: Are you sure? I really want you to think about this because the last time I made an appointment and you changed your mind about medications. difficult child: But, that was for a different reason. So, in other words she's willing to take the same medication she would be prescribed for depression just because the label this time is anxiety. :hammer: Whatever works. However, she still won't take the amitriptyline prescribed for sleep even though I told her it can help with anxiety because she doesn't want to take "something that's prescribed for a lot of different things because those things never help me". Yeah. Cause she's tried it so many times. How many is that? Ummmm.....Zero. Sigh. Whatever works, right? [/QUOTE]
