> Hi Guys --
Well, this morning the adderall stopped working so my daughter is bedridden again, and very unhappy of course. Lamictal up to 100 mgs w/out trouble.
I guess in consultation w/pdoc the next step should be Zyprexa. Does this mean stopping or weaning her from the wellbutrin or could we do a simultaneous intro and withdrawal?
I'm terrified to think of her being *more* depressed. At least she'll see the pdoc on Saturday -- he has that wonderful gift of giving her hope. He acts like her situation is the most normal thing in the world and that the course of bipolar is always like this. LOL.
I'm also afraid I'm at the limit of how much I can support her; I can't take a leave from grad school and I'm in the midst of an AD switch myself. Not a good place to be when others are depending on me.Any thoughts?
Liz
