[QUOTE="Steely, post: 62856, member: 3301"] Yea, smallworld.........I am with you. I am worried about the same thing. I think Paxil was chosen because he did really well on it for a time about 5 years ago. Then it induced mania, after about 3 months - but it was confusing because it also coincided with a steroid shot for poison ivy - which as I now know, induces mania in my difficult child - and he was not on a mood stabilizer at that point. I also think Paxil was chosen because it is supposed to be so good with anxiety. I did not know about the disinhibited factor of Paxil. I have called psychiatrist, and I will call her again. Thanks for all the other positive thoughts......I, too, am keeping my fingers crossed. However I have been there done that with difficult child too many times to get too hopeful. That is sad, though, isn't it. [/QUOTE]
