[QUOTE="Kjs, post: 380162"] Well, difficult child took the new medication yesterday afternoon. He said he could feel it, took the edge off of the depersonalization. I think he had high hopes and thinking it helped more. Looking at him he looked a little out of it, but he said he wasn't. I sure hope it did take the edge off and he just wasn't thinking it did. He always starts new medications with such high hopes. He has put on a LOT of weight in the past 6 months, wondering if it is the abilify or if it is because he started growing, voice changed etc. He now weighs 196 and is only 5'9". He is built stocky, large bones. I am thinking I am going to give him 1/2 a pill. Dr. said that 1mg was a low dose, but also said I can give him 1/2 if he is too tired. I notified the teachers and they did say he can go out of his class and put his head down if he was to sleepy. as for the chiro...he loves it. Can't weight to go back. But he does spend all his time on the computer in his room. But he lays in bed with his laptop. Propped up by pillows. He complains about his back after school from sitting in the chairs. Today is EMDR treatment. We are hitting this hard and heavy. I hope he keeps it up. [/QUOTE]
