In reply to my son's delimma, posted by a_a on February 7, 2003, at 12:16:21
> My son,19 1/2 years old unfortunately had a few eppisodes of nervouse breake down, and has tried to make a comeback, but realizing now, unfortunately instead of relaxing and having a happy time, and getting the right treatment, started taking classes at the college, but now he is realy deveastated, one Dr. prescribed Zyprexa, and on the second opinion the other Dr. prescribed Respirdal. 1st delimma is that he refuses to take anything, 2nd I'm really scared of these drugs considering all the side effects especially I have read that Respirdal causes mania, Zyprexa has the weight gaine and diabetics and lots more. What should I do? desperate mother.
Are there any non med alternatives? he seems to have been crushed, whether geneticly he had something or not, but I'm sure the conditions didn't help either. Help!
