[QUOTE="rlsnights, post: 305862, member: 7948"] Welcome. Sounds like you two have been through the wringer. I'm wondering what exactly is your objection to mood stabilizers? Is it to all mood stabilizers or just some? Did you see an improvement when the Risperdal was started? Concerta can provoke psychosis and worsen mood swings. Has anyone suggested taking a break from that to see if it makes a difference? As I suggested to someone else, you may want to discuss supplementing with Omega-3's (here's a link to a helpful discussion of using Omega-3's) with your peds and/or psychiatrist [url]http://www.psycheducation.org/depression/medications/Omega-3.htm[/url] And Vit. D supplementation (using Vit D3) may be beneficial to her. Vit. D levels can be checked. Again, something to check out with her doctors. I have a friend who has a 7 yo going through precocious puberty. It is a big problem for them and I understand your concern. To have that on top of her MI issues is ugh. And who knows how much that may be complicating her MI problems. Glad you found the board and best wishes. [/QUOTE]
