[QUOTE="tictoc, post: 329051, member: 7916"] Hi, Thanks for your good wishes. We are starting the Trileptal tonight. We wanted to have Christmas Eve and Christmas day without worrying about the new medication, but we are ready to start tonight. Bug seems ready, too. We have discontinued the Prozac, but for now the psychiatrist wants us to continue the clonidine and imipramine. I think Bug has had a clear episode of cycling in the past month, starting with the increase in energy level and defiance around Thanksgiving, peaking at the hypomania Friday night, and then sinking into a depression. The psychiatrist saw him as he was feeling better on Wednesday, but still thought he saw clear depressive symptoms. Bug seems a little more up today. husband is coming around on the prospect of Early Onset Bi-Polar (EOBP). He really is a rock once he gets to where something makes sense to him. But, it definitely takes him longer to get there. And, yes, I read "The Bipolar Child" a few months ago when we first started thinking in this direction. I'm going to get it from the library again on Monday to take another look now that I know more. Off to make lasagne for Christmas dinner! [/QUOTE]
