Ok, I'm working thru all this, I think. Two questions:
1) psychiatrist always meets with both difficult child and me together so some things might be worded a little differently as a result. If psychiatrist says "watch for signs of agitation", does that mean that if difficult child is suddenly the epitemy of defiance, that "agitation" has occurred? Or does the "defiant- I'll do what I want to" attitude and actions have nothing to do with agitation?
2) difficult child was on the raised depakote about 10 days before this past violent/aggressive behavior- it also happened to be the very day that I started the low dose of AP. That was 10 mg of the generic form of celexa. Do you think (assuming this MIGHT have been medication related) that it was the depakote increase or celexa?
Thanks- this doesn't mean that he has a free for all excuse here- I just wanted others' opinions on this....
