[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 440959, member: 1233"] I didn't always take Wiz. Mostly because our ER is awful for kids - they truly have no idea or interest in caring for them. The times I did take him they gave him their standard treatment for children. A benadryl. Yup. One benadryl was supposed to fix his suicidal ideations. Given that he was diagnosis'd with unipolar depression and made two SERIOUS attempts at suicide at age 7, I was pretty furious with them. THe nearest psychiatric place for kids is 80 min on a good day and he likes car rides so by the time we hit the city limits he was calm. But I did always call hte psychiatrist. He hated that. Didn't want the doctor to know because the doctor would talk to him about responsiblity and good choices. Even more effective was telling his sp ed teacher that he said it the night or day before. He didn't wnat the ones he liked to know. I would take him. Send him by ambulance at least a few times if insurance will cover it. Or else get someone to help with the kids, or even take them in if you must. because that is better than having the difficult child actually try it. You don't want that. [/QUOTE]
