Serequel??? Any experience?

[Guest guest]

Hi,

My dd has not been doing well. As the p-doc calls it, she is having

break through OCD. Even on the 15mg lexapro. I have been waiting

for it to calm down, but it isn't. She has been up until midnight a

lot and it is difficult to even talk to her. THe doc suggested to

raise the lexapro, and then maybe try serequel at night for a while.

It is a tranquilizer as well as antipsychotic. How scary to me. I

know many kids are on this stuff, but it is just another path to

cross. and more tears. Have any of you had experience with this drug

and had similar feelings? Each time we raise a dose or add a med, I

feel such grief. Maybe it is puberty setting it off.... Does the

grief ever stop or do we just get used to it?

I just came back from lunch with 3 girlfriends. None of them know of

the shit that I have to deal with. It does make me feel alone. Have

most of you told your friends? These Moms all have kids in my dd's

class. Hmmmmmmmm....Thank you........Ellen
