[QUOTE="StressedM0mma, post: 485491, member: 13204"] difficult child came in last night to tell me she couldn't sleep. ( I have always told her she could come and get me ) So I went and got in bed with her and rubbed her back and sang to her. She ended up falling asleep pretty quickly. But, she kept having muscle spasms/twitches throughout her entire body the entire time I was with her. I stayed in bed with her about an hour, and she did it the entire time. It would stop for a minute or two, but then pick back up. I had noticed it some before, but it was when she was asleep on the couch, and I thought it was from all of the noise that was down here. So, I am guessing that has to be part of it. I think I would be exhausted if my muscles were doing that all night and then I had to get up and function. I did a little reading, and I think it might be a Zoloft side effect. (Great!) I do not remember this happenning while she was on Celexa, and I KNOW we didn't have the tiredness problems. We have a p'doctor appointment. Tuesday and I definitely am bringing this up to her. I am actually really excited!! How sad is it when you are excited that you find something else wrong with your child. I told her I was very happy she came to get me even though it was 2 am. She said she tried to sleep, and couldn't so she got out of bed, played with her makeup for awhile, and tried again, and when she couldn't she came to get me. I was so proud of her. I told her she did everything we had talked about, and everything all of the books, and doctors. say to try. And, she came to get me. I know she is 14, and needs to learn to get to sleep on her own, but I have always told both girls they could come get me whenever they needed me, and I would never be upset. Sorry for the long post, but I am just soo excited for her, and us. [/QUOTE]
