Cynthia,
My daughter has been seeing psychs for years with no real diagnosis. She is fifteen and it sounds like her most recent psychologist thinks she may have cyclothymia. The problem is she doesn't want to be on meds but everyone is encouraging her to do so. I would like for her to be medicated too because I want her to have as near a normal life as is possible. Can you write me back, so she may read your response, and tell her your experiences and how medicine has helped you. She sees her psychiatrist this coming Fri. and I really want her to be open-minded about trying something that may help her. She was on Seroquel but it didn't really leave her feeling in control of her life and she still had her ups and downs. Also, Sean and Andrewb can you give her some encouraging words and insight into why it's important to take medication?

Shelley
