I am sure my 10 year old son would have said "Help Me" too, had he known he should tell someone if he was having thoughts of suicide. He was taking 225 mg of Effexor XR. Have any other children been put on this stuff, at an adult dosage level? Has it even been approved for children??? Are they thriving? I feel he was misdiagnosed, at least partially, with ADHD, instead of bi-polar. Please let me know if anyone has children taking this medication successfully, and for what condition. Just sign me "at a HUGE loss".
