Guest guest Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 Thank-you Chris. I googled kalium phosphate quickly and I'm thinking to get some for him. Do you know if it's okay to have with medications? He started having anxiety attacks again last night over if he would be able to go to his class today or not. So far he's still sleeping. I'm hoping that he'll sleep until noon. Then I'll only have a couple hours to try to distract him til I take him to the school. After all the anxiety attacks and depression he went through yesterday, it left me feeling terribly depressed and tired last night. He says that just being near the school reminds > him of all the anxiety he's had to deal with at the school over the > years and remembering makes him feel it. > > , my oldest son (no OCD) said something similar once.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 , when I looked at kali phos for Randall, I don't recall noting any adverse reactions to take it with anything. Was looking at that since I was getting something else for him to try to. Gee, since things went well with his other class at school, odd how it doesn't matter when anxiety/panic comes into the picture. Well, not " odd " but logic doesn't work with OCD or anxiety, panic.... > > Thank-you Chris. I googled kalium phosphate quickly and I'm thinking > to get some for him.
