bleh

Went to the Drs on monday afternoon, Corey my eldest needs a reassesment for ADHD, seems he's been pulling the wool over our eyes again :( got another letter from his highschool and his behaviour in term 4 was far from acceptable... think im gonna request a medication trial this time as its all getting way to stressful and just to damn hard to keep him under control, plus when its affecting his family,schooling and solial life its just not on, surely theres gotta be an answer that will make life easier for him, were also going to try some counciling to try and teach him some behaviour managment techniques.

Whilst at the Drs he perscribed me Zoloft as i was getting quite down about the situation with Corey, was supposed to take 25mg a day for 2 weeks then up it to 50mg, but as the days progressed i began to feel bad, extremely bad, not sleeping, racing heart, anxiety, severe panic attacks, by god ive never felt like that before in my life and never ever want to feel like it again! it felt like i was loosing my bloody mind! i havent taken the pills for 2 days now and am starting to feel like myself again, thank god!

I see the dr again on Jan 4th so i'll just wait n see what he has to say about it then, im really not keen on trying anything else after my experience with the zoloft though.

sheeeeeeez what a horrible feeling that must have been for you, hope you can get some answers as to why that happened. I certainly wouldn't be taking them anymore.
And Corey...have you tried the elimination diet on him to see what foods react to him, we did that for Shawn till he reached puberty where it just got too hard to do anymore without medication and support.
Thinking of you and hope it all gets better.
