Hi!I just picked up antoehr medication for my daughter of 15. I'm so tired of trying new meds. Jessica has been diagnosed with add and odd, depression and some symptoms of phychosis. She has attempted suicide a couple of times and has tried to hurt herself as well.Before her first suicide attempt she was on straterra and zoloft. Since then she has been taken off straterra, upped the zoloft and is now on zoloft and abilify in the mornings. Before bed she takes abilify and melatonin. She says she can't get to sleep right away. Her grades have been failing some and her teachers say she appears unable to concentrate. So yesterday, her Dr. prescribed concerta. I'm no nervous about this as she may need it up to three times a day. Jess is a vegetarian now, but does crave sweets. I don't know if it's an ocd or that her body really does crave it. She has scoliosis and has had back surgery last June. But she has a very slow metabolism still. She probably has a weekly bowl movement.There's so much more to tell. I just wish she didn't have all these meds to contend with. I am trying to convince her to do the knee bends with holding her ears for memory. I have tried it for a couple of days and will keep at it. I am always experimenting. Well, I will keep researching out your website. Thanks,Wendy Morris
