While you are transitioning onto this drug your family should act as if you are in the hospital and see to your kids so you can get used the the heavy sedation at the beginning and with each increase....the sedative affects should wear off after a week or tow but until then you shouldn't be allowed to ne with any kids....sorry but your family is really not being enlightened about the initial effects of this drug. I'm not saying you should quit or give up just that they need to put you and especially your kids first right now.
