Hello Friends,
I have a kid from age 10months started hitting people and not going with the flow. She is so intelligent and very aware but does not behave appropriately. She has no friends. It is as if she does not read socials cues and does not pay attention to people's personal space. She is definately not liked in school. She interrupts people and never ever listens to me. She is over the top fussy and gets agitated. Does well academically but could not be more defiant and opposition. She even resists normal personal hygiene care. I am a single mother with limited finances and am in pain due to the arguments we have day and night. We are always arguing and she spits and sticks her touque out or physically hurts me. She grunts and whines all the time. Meltdowns are regular. She even hits herself at times due to angry. She is so angry.This has really taken its toll on me and I do not know how to resolve the issue. We have tried prozac, paxil, risperdone, geoden, tenex, focalin, tratera, vyvanse, seraquel, and ritilan. Ritilian seems to only tackle the inattentiveness. I have gone to so many does that do not seem to be to in to us. The last one was quick to say she has inattentiveness and mood disorder and would like her on maybe depokete or lithum in addition to ritalin.
I feel so sad and hopeless with my kid. I can't make friends either due to her outrageous behavior. People think it is a reflection on me and my bad parenting skills.
Please share your thoughts or experience on Abilify or Depokete or Lithium.
I am going to try abilify before going on to the other choices.
*Can't wait to hear from you.
