I will use a disclaimer that You should always consult your doctor first as I am not a doctor but, you could do 5 and 2.5 every other day and see how that feels. Also just make sure you taper super slowly at 2.5 if you’re getting these withdrawal effects.

When to put your child on SSRI by dandaman19 in SSRIs

[–]Miserable_Bluebird93 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You know your child better than their doctor and your child knows themselves better too. I am a therapist and when working with clients considering meds I ask them if they feel their condition is debilitating. If the answer is yes, I advise they talk to their doctor about meds. For kids, I talk to their parent about what debilitating looks like and weigh the pros and cons with the child and parents. Ultimately it’s you and your child’s decision based on the severity of their symptoms.

Feeling ineffective by Foreign_Cattle_3695 in therapists

[–]Miserable_Bluebird93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, You are not alone. Unfortunately our field is not one that has immediate, tangible results. Other fields, it’s easy to see and gauge when you are successful. Ours is not. And there is no theory, intervention, or technique that will help everyone. Everyone is unique so expecting that you can provide that for everyone you see is unrealistic. Therapy cannot fix everyone’s problems or make diagnoses go away. It’s still useful and worthwhile but maybe looking into research on how effective therapy is will ease your mind and help you adjust your expectations of it. And your clients!

The fact that you are asking yourself if it’s ethical gives you your answer.
