I have posted before concerning obsessive/compulsive disorder.
This same 4 year old child is now obsessed with her hair. She hated
it being even near her face. It was short but had to cut even shorter.
Now, she constantly cries to have her hair brushed because it looks
"Nappy" Her words, not mine. She still has the same problems as in the last post.
I also would like to know what help there is out there for a 16 year old
girl who is about 5'5" and weighs 267 and 1/2 lbs.? She has a
very large frame and carries it well, but needs help drastically.
However we are a family of very moderate means. Also extreme obesity
and even morbid obesity runs in our family. I am 2 inches shorter
and weigh 1/2 ounce more. I hve gastric stapling and am still fat.
I accept myself but want better for my child. My 3 other children are
of average to mediun size.
My close friend has a 6 yr. old grand son who is extremely hyper with
some learning problem due to this. He is taking ritilan and is on a fairly high
dose. He now is experiencing severe eye twitches. Is the ritilan causing it and
why? What can be done to help? One school turned him away at one time due to the fact
that he was unmanagable because of the ADHD. Please help us if you can. We
think that the medication may be causing it and realize that if
he is taken off of it then it could hinder him from receiving the education
that he deserves. Thank You.
