15 yr old daughter was put on Zonisamide 100 mgs and in 2 weeks....

[Guest guest]

wil go up to 200 mgs. I have read about this med for bipolar...but she

is in the process of being diagnosed...it keeps changing. Some say she

has dysthymia as well as conduct diorder, some say bipolar with

anxiety. She is definitely anxious and can't sit still. I would love

to hear personal experiences with people who have been on this drug.

(Zonisamide)...she just started it yesterday. My daughter is a cutter,

has been in trouble with the law, has a great deal of trouble

concentrating and following through, etc, etc,,,Also I have signed her

up to do therapy at the DBT clinic in Seattle which will begin in 2

weeks...anybody have experience with that? ALL replies welcome..

A very concerned MOM...Thanks
