With our kids I was very concerned not to medicalise the normal intractable problems of life. We could easily have done that. There is an alternative view about disease progression. I really do feel it would have been a disaster for us to have medicalised a very difficult situation. Rightly or wrongly. And I am sceptical about ADHD and bipolar diagnoses.
I don't know anything about those drugs. I would be so worried. Her body is still developing and is being affected by the drugs, they aren't working well and our knowledge is so limited.
I wish I could say something more helpful.
