Subject: Anxiety Name: Glenda Flatt Date Posted: Nov 16, 08 - 2:41 PM Message: I know that this is just a part of Batten's but what meds work better with the least side effects for anxiety.
Thanks for any help! Name: Ruth Hardin Date Posted: Nov 17, 08 - 11:34 AM Message: Hi Glenda, I know how painful it is to watch your child suffer from anxiety. Kelsie, age 17 JNCL, used to become extremely anxious about being in open spaces. She was started on prozac about 7 years ago for this. It really helped her get through that period. She still takes prozac. We tried stopping it a couple of times and found her becoming increasingly tearful, so we've kept her on it. Good luck, Ruth

We still experience minor occations, but not even close to what was happening before. He constantly thought spiders were crawling all over him and he could not be in a room by himself, a lot of times he had to be sitting right next to me in order to feel safe. Hope this helps...
Jill
