[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 604018, member: 1550"] I would seek another opinion. All antidepressants CAN (not necessarily WILL but CAN) cause suicidal ideation in teens and even adults. Prozac was poisen for us. While everyone is different, if it's not helping her, it could be hurting her. I'd cut out the Concerta completely if it were my daughter. Stimulants are dangerous to kids with bipolar, which she may or may not have, and she is not benefitting from it. In short, I'd find a new psychiatrist. This one isn't helping her. Sadly, doctor shopping is part of finding the help we need for our kids. If you see this psychiatrist every three months, he is assuming his treatment is working and so he doesn't have to check her often. He is obviously wrong! [/QUOTE]
