>Thank you Ron. I know there is no easy miracle here. I guess I've been really lucky in that every time I needed an AD, it worked.
And of course depression, from where I sit, seems like a walk in the park compared to bipolar disorders.
I've actually gotten the most mileage from your behavioral suggestions -- on Friday she got out of bed and off to school on 10 mgs of adderall.
Remarkable? No -- a date with her boyfriend after school. With this evidence of her ability to function [not entirely] I've become firmer
about my expectations. My silly mantra of the week is "privileges go with recovery" -- meaning that she can't do anything fun unless she
convinces me that she is recovering, i.e., getting up.
Up to 100 mgs on the lamictal and still no trouble. And certainly a bit of improvement, even if she won't admit it.Best,
Liz :)
