We finally got LMC's meds covered and she started last night. I was relieved, scared and sad all at the same time.
I have no idea how we ended up here,how I became the mother of a four -year - old who needs anti -psychotic meds :-| . It's been a long and painful road.
I know there isn't a magic pill but I am hoping for some improvement. I would really like to, finally ,meet my daughter.
Praying that they work and improve things. I have seen amazing things for kids (although not this young) on meds. Will be thinking of you and your family. How long did they say it would take to see if they are working?
So glad you got the coverage!! Hoping the meds will provide you all some peace soon.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Parenting takes us all places we never expected to be. You are doing all you can for your girls. And that's all you can do.
Aside from one scary freakout the first day there hasn't been any screaming. None! No throwing herself on the floor,stairs etc. No yelling. She has been able to stay downstairs every day and participate in all our activities!!!!!!
She still cries hysterically but is much calmer when I speak to her. Not zombie -like at all though. She is still totally non -compliant but now she is so much more pleasant about it Lol!
I am so hopeful that this continues. My ears have stopped ringing for the first time in I don't know how long.
