Well we are now trying the new medicine for Josh called Zoloft. This is day three and the transition has been rough. Josh had several meltdowns yesterday. Today he has had one so far and the day is still young.
Yesterday evening, he was happy and flappy with me while Stormie and Gracie went out for a bit. I am not sure what to think about the new meds. He is only on 25 mg of zoloft right now and it is the 3rd day of it right now.
So far, he was happy until something happened to make the pc not work with no sound and a wallpaper that was started to freeze and tile to no end. Then he had the major meltdown. We are monitoring the situation now.
Its a lonely time for us now, because we don't know if he is going to be okay when we go out somewhere. We feel shunned anytime he has a meltdown, Need prayers for us and our family
Enlightenment Through Raising Children on the Autism Spectrum, plus observations on various other topics. Keep in mind, this is not a "here's how you fix it place" although there are many; this blog simply provides a perspective.

Hi Larry, Sorry to hear that things are still difficult with Josh. My sense is that Zoloft could easily take a week or 2 to work well, so hang in there!
