Welcome to depressedteens.com’s podcast. Our show is a fast-paced information packed program on mood disorders in teens and young adults. This podcast is made FOR teens dealing with a mood disorder or friends and family of a teen that is dealing with a mood disorder. Each week, hosts Chris, Ryan, Gopi and Emily will pick one central topic or issue surrounding being a teen or young adult with a mood disorder and go over a whole slew of information. One week we might talk about medication. Another week, we might visit the issue of suicide. Sooner or later, we’re going to hit on virtually any angle you can think of about these disorders. We’re going to discuss a lot of important issues, cover a lot of information, talk to some very influential experts and we might even have some fun doing it!
I have a 14 year old daugher with mood disorder/add. We have tried multiple meds. Currently on Lamictal and concerta 36mg. Can she be on both medications and or could being on both make her angry. She seems angrier lately.
I have a 14 year old daughter too, she has allways been over reactive as a child, I saw this did not change as she matured her behaiviour did not. I also have a 12 year son who is ADHA with ODD.
I have nitices with Shane that days are never the same, he was taking to medications and I did find that his ODD became more aggressive in nature. With Moriah I am trying to find a DR who will be both causious and attenttive to her symptoms. A 14 year old is filled with Hormones that exaserbate the depression and the Bi Polar disorder, So allot of it is Hoemones and the reaction to medications on top of every thing else.
How are you holding up? I am worn out . I am currently looking for a support group. Do you have a partner that suports you in all you are trying to do for your daughter? My husband is a special man, but has allways been high funtioning or non funtioning, I found he was rarely on middle ground. I have since realized that he is Bi Polar. He needs to get help. I am trying to hold every one together. This is not working. I have faith which inables me to lean on God. The harsh reality is if my husband is not on board with the treatment of the children, which at times must be due to his own challanges. I then have beal with this by myself. not sn easy task’ pLEASE TELL ME ABOUT YOUR WALK THROUGH THIS. tHANKS YOU AND gOD bLESS
