Hi... HELP! I daughter is currently taking Biphentin in am and Risperdal in evening.

Bedtime has become a nightly struggle, as the only way she will fall asleep is in my bed. Once I transfer her out when I go to sleep... she is back in an hour or two. When alone, she is convinced (obsesssed) that M myers (halloween villain) is gonna get her.

CBT began a few months ago, with a nice month break in there for summer... Now its worse than ever.

I am expecting my third child witin a week or two and really don't know how else to handle it....

Anyone with some experience here?!!

Hi there,

I'm so sorry she is going through this.

Why is a 10 year old watching horror movies?

I would say to cut out all media influences. Yourself included. Start watching family films together.

When my kids were scared when they were little, I prayed with them. God is bigger than the boogy man. Always. They can always call on God to help them get through any situation.

Hello there:
One of the side effects of Risperdal is wakefulness in some people.

If you could, i would get some second opinions on the medication for a 10 year old.

I will pray for your daughter today.

And Shifrah gave some very good advice.

Blessings,
MJ
