<br />
After a second day, on which I had athletic cousins holding Qubit down for me, I have adjusted my hypothesis. The pills are basically anti-anxiety pills, not soporifics. Q is terrified of driving, and cars, and sounds, and <em>boxes</em>, and <em>oh my oh my!</em> so anti-anxiety fits the bill. Tazendra, on the other hand, gets BORED in a box. She can’t SEE, and she wants to PLAY, and am I LISTENING out there? Therefore, the anti-anxiety pills don’t affect her muchly. She ain’t anxious.<br />
<br />
I don’t think I could have coped with Qubit’s screaming for eight hours, let alone thirteen. I just don’t. The occasional mew? Sure. The wailing? Noooooo.</p>felicityhttp://faerye.net/post/theorizing#comment-2087cat tranqs2007-04-09T10:30:36+00:002007-04-09T10:30:36+00:00<p>We stopped using tranqs for Fleetwood. She never quite goes out is is always really unconfortable for the ride and then about a day after. This does make us endure a siren for a few hours, unless RAD has the free hand to hold her, but we don’t like seeing her recover from the meds.</p>EMeta
