Guest guest Posted September 21, 2006 Report Posted September 21, 2006 Hello everyone. My dd, 11 y/o has been on Prozac at 5 mg for one week and is starting today at 10mg for maintenance dosing. She is about 55 lbs. I noticed a difference in her anxiety/rages the first few days. She's more mellow, calms down quicker from anger. Yesterday, she was a little hyper-- but happy! I will deal with hyper-ness anyday over the OCD taking control. So, far, there is only one little reassurance behavior, asking if she has her belt on in the mornings. Even if she's touching it, she asks if it is on. At least now, she is more 'available' (reachable?) and willing to work on ERP. She is happy to take it every morning. Relief at last! Let's hope this drug continues to work wonders for our family! I was nervous, but am glad we got her on it. Life is GREAT at the moment. Quote
