She is struggling on this med and trying to drive long distance to appointments and I in fear for safety on road at this point! Feel this med is way overkill for her situation but feel helpless to be heard..Advice?

DearWe understand your concernsI went through your problem description. The medicines you were given is quite suitable for your daughter of 25 years who is showing suicidal tendency. Wait for two or three weeks and the medicines should become a habit for your child. But that is not all. I suggest she should not become drug dependent. Find out why is troubled and under this tendency. If required get the help of a psychologist. Medicines alone cannot cure such problems. Underlying factors needs to be removed.Therefore, tell her and appraise her of the situation and ask her to cooperate for a visit to psychologist.Hope this clears your doubts. Available for further clarifications.Good luck.
