Mine was Zoloft when I was 10 for PTSD. Worked great. When I was 17, it made me manic.

Lamictal, Trazodone and klonopin. All at the same time.

It's been a long time ago but it was either Paxil or Elavil.

Late '70's - Amitriptyline. All tricyclics make my depression worse.

Close to 40 years of trying to find the right drug combination.

I'm pretty sure it was paxil. Can't be 100% certain since it was over 20 years ago when I was a kid. Funny story, a few years ago I stumbled across an article stating that paxil was dangerous for kids!

Therapist I was seeing in conjunction with the psychiatrist said kids couldn't have bipolar disorder. He was wrong!

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
