[QUOTE="Junglelandmama, post: 423476"] Jena, My difficult child is also difficult to medicate. Some medications do the opposite of what they are supposed to do and we end up with a big mess. She now has been on 75mg of Lamactil at bedtime and she is definetly ready for bed after taking that and Abilify. We do also give her Melatonin or Benadryl when/if she has sleep issues. She has been telling me that she feels like she is dreaming more on the Lamactil, more vivid and sometimes scary dreams. I will bring that up to psychiatrist next visit. I am so not sure if there has been improvement in her moods, they are always awful this time of year, up down and all around. Of course, she is still not up to therapeutic level on the Lamactil yet. This whole medication-go-round is frustrating and scary. I wish someone could come up with a better alternative, wishful thinking! Hugs, Vickie [/QUOTE]
