I have 2 difficult child's. easy child went into to see psychiatrist the other day, and psychiatrist thinks she is dealing with depression, anxiety and probably has attentional issues. She started her on zoloft and trazodone to sleep, will see how she is in a month (hopefully she does well on the zoloft) and then maybe start concerta.
It sure explains a lot of difficult child dtr's irritability and sleep problems. I am a bit concerned as zoloft is an ssri, and hope that does not cause a problem, but I trust psychiatrist and she could be right on track. Who in my house does not deal with anxiety and depression? So we will see. psychiatrist started her on 50mg of trazodone and I could barely wake the poor girl up yesterday, so last night we cut the pills in half and she took 25.
And of course difficult child son has decided to act up, he was kicking my car seat so hard on the way to school yesterday that it was hard to drive. He is most often like this in the morning, and I am really at a loss as to what to do to handle it. He is so horrible in the morning, but I am seeing it spill over into the afternoon. His mood has been really labile going on a week or so now, so I think it is more than having a bad day. Guess I will have to call psychiatrist today
