My daughter is doing fabulously on her meds. She is patient and kind. The meds are doing a good job of keeping the rage and fits at bay. In fact, I am not sure that she has even argued with us in the time she has been taking them. The best part is that is really isn't altering her personality either. She is still the funny, witty, snarky kid she always has been, just calmer and definitely more pleasant. The school days have been wonderful. She has stayed on green on her behavior chart the last 4 days. Here's to crossing our fingers that it keeps working.
The only thing I can really complain about is her sleeping schedule changing. She tends to fall asleep by 7:00 nightly which is great, but she wakes up by 5:00 am most mornings. But a pleasant child is way better to deal with a 5:00 than a grouchy one at 8:00. So a plus in my book!

Her sleep cycle should fix itself in a couple of weeks. Medication, when needed, is a Godsent!
ReplyDeleteAwesome!
ReplyDeleteToo bad about the mornings but I guess you're right, you can't have everything! That's really great to hear that the meds are working.
It is such a relief when the meds finally work! Hope GB is right!
