suggestion to add:<br>
There is a range of drugs that can be used to treat this disorder. It may take some trial and error to determine the suitable drugs and dosages for a specific patient. It is very important that the patient and psychiatrist talk honestly and be prepared to try other options if the treatment is not working satisfactorily. It is also important that the patient continue the drugs even when they feel fine. The idea of the drugs is to keep the brain chemistry stable and that requires they be taken regularly.<br>
A student can consult a school nurse (high school) or any Student clinic or student advisor. <br>[[User:Markr|Markr]] 18:37, 16 September 2008 (EDT)
