[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 81279, member: 2423"] My 9-year-old daughter has a severe anxiety disorder and is taking 20 mg Prozac. While it has helped her anxiety somewhat, it has also caused her to have very low frustration tolerance and to rage. We don't think this is a manic reaction to Prozac; we do believe, however, it is related to the medication and dose, and we are talking with her psychiatrist about weaning her from Prozac and trying something else. I'm not in any way suggesting that's what's going on with your daughter, but it sounds as if she has extreme social anxiety and her medications are not helping completely. Sometimes the medication is wrong, sometimes the dose is wrong, sometimes as a teen grows and changes, adjustments need to be made. You definitely should talk all of this over with your daughter's psychiatrist to see what might be recommended. [/QUOTE]
