My nephew moved in to attend 2 years of college. Is this something I need to immediately report to IHSS or will the yearly visit suffice ?
Also does this decrease my son’s IHSS hours because household duties ,can be split amongst another person? I feel like I’ve read that someone here but I cannot find much online.

Started at 25 stayed on that for 4 weeks. Minimal side effects. Increased to 50 at week 5, so I’ve been on 50 for a little over 2 weeks and I am feeling great - more energy, less overstimulation from my autistic kids but I am irritable much easier and annoyed easily.

When I say I have zero negative physical side effects I mean it. Zero.

Does this track for beginners on Zoloft ?

Is this a common side effect? I really hope I don’t have to stop Zoloft it’s helping immensely! But, I have so much tension in my right shoulder/neck area it feels like it’s so stiff and stretching.
I hate the feeling.
It started after starting Zoloft
I increased my dose to 50 about 2 weeks ago.
And I’ve been on it a total of about 8 weeks.

Anyone had it and it subsided?
Other than that I have zero side effects

My almost 3 year old is pretty much unhappy all the time.
He’s crying whitening or just plain screaming most of the day.
He’ll go a few days being fine and happy then back to the constant crying.
Doesn’t matter what I offer he’s just pissed,
I assume it’s mostly because that’s all he has to communicate. He’s in therapy and learning pecs but even when I offer the pecs he doesn’t choose one.
I guess I’m hair asking if anyone had a toddler this way and it got better?
Any ways I’m missing in order to figure out why he’s so upset?

My son is 8 and he is limited verbally and very much delayed.
He recently started farting so loud and purposefully.
He does is everywhere we go.
I guess I’m just asking if anyone else is dealing with this lol and or anyone have ideas on how to curb it. 😅 it’s soooo embarrassing anytime we go to an appointment or a quiet waiting room I’m full of anxiety 😅😅😅

Leaving for a wedding I’ll be gone 36 hours. He’s never been away from me, he’s like Velcro to me when he’s not at his Aba center
He’s staying with my mom and niece who watch him all the time. But he always cries with them too.
Has anyone left their separation anxiety toddler I lm scared I’m going to come home to worse and he’s going ti be so upset

Idk what is going on is this because I’m not as anxious anymore?
I haven’t had hardly any side effects and Zoloft seemed to have worked well for me be try quickly.
But I recently forgot to turn my car off when I got home and it was left running for 4 hours. Then the next day I left a pot boiling on the stove and forgot about it.
Like???? Is this normal will it go away?

Honestly very little side effects if any.
I thought i felt “good” at the 2 week mark. I’m 3 weeks now and it doesn’t feel any better or worse but I feel much more anxious like just thinking a lot or worried I’m forgetting to do something (how I feel when I’m anxious) like I sort my thoughts in order but idk what I’m even sorting lol it’s strange.
It’s just much worse right now.

Dr said I “could” go up if I want to but could also stay on 25 I’m just thinking idk if this is going to get better on 25mg or I may as well go to 50 sooner than later.

I guess I’m asking
If I’m week 3 with no improvement on 25 is there still a chance it could work for me in a few more week and I can increase to 50 later

I will say I’ve seen small improvements overall but these last few days I have been so irritated. Sent over edge easily.
Is this normal? Will it subside?

So I know it’s early but I’ve only had some initial side effects and brain for the first two days. Then 2 days I felt better.
Now, it’s like I don’t take anything at all. Zero side effects and I don’t feel any better or worse in Tera of my anxiety and reasons I feel as put on this medication.
Does this mean this is not going to help me? Wrong dose? Should I give it more time? I guess I’m just wondering what am I even supposed to feel or look for the coming week?!

I have 2 autistic children and they both receive ps, However I am pretty sure one of them is losing ps this year based on how the home visit went and the questions this sw badgered my son to answer in certain manners.
I obviously do not agree and would like to appeal in order to present my case and documentation that goes beyond the answers he was able to give her such as “call 911 in an emergency “
I was not asked for an updated IEP, or soc 821

My question is since I have exemption 2 how does that or if I appeal with aide paid pending ? Do I keep the current authorized hours and exemption?

Ty.

I’m sorry I keep posting but I’m so anxious. A week in now and

I feel sleepy, no energy and foggy not to where I cat function but I can’t feel like this forever.
All the reasons I got on the medication in the first place but it’s worse now.
How many week will I know if this is the med for me?
Having these feelings is giving me more anxiety

I cannot stop thinking—
I’m day 3 of Zoloft for anxiety and depression (I likely have ocd too) and I have noticed I am having more thoughts they aren’t self harm or anything just thoughts of omg what if this medication is going to make me worse and it’ll never go away. What if it triggers some terrible ocd that cannot be cured.

The more I think about it the worse I feel.
Other than that I am not having much of any side effects as I’ve had some good moments but obviously too soon to tell. I also have this constant anxiety stomach drop feeling

Is this normal ?

I have posted here before I am a mother of 5 and have autistic children
I know I have caregiver burnout anxiety and depression but I’m a busy anxious person I get things done even if my tired and I’m terrified of being tired or lazy. I told the psychiatrist that I need to be more motivated as lately the depression was making me less motivated basically I only ambition or energy to do things for my kids not myself. Everything else feels exhausting like I have nothing left.
I am hoping and praying Zoloft does not make me tired but I took first dose last night and I’ve been so tired all day. I’m sure that’s Normal but hoping others can tell me it subsides, will it get worse before it gets better?

Should I take this medication at night or morning idk how to determine what will work best for me

Is this a meltdown? I cannot find a trigger.
It comes out of no where and it’s loud and sounds like he’s in pain then just goes away.
Tonight he cried during bedtime for an entire hours like a newborn with colic, I had to remove him from my room and give him to dad because I was getting way too overstimulated, didn’t last long he cried worse without me.
He finally fell asleep now. I feel bad for getting so frustrated and removing him from my space.
Does anyone else child do this?!
