[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 231490, member: 3444"] No experience with lithium, but wanted to welcome you! My difficult child 2 has taken Risperdal in the past and it worked very well for a while in managing his impulsive aggression and emotional swings. He now takes Seroquel XR is for the most part stable. I understand with lithium there are frequent blood draws to monitor levels, so hopefully that won't be a problem for your difficult child. It's supposed to be the gold standard still in treating BiPolar (BP), and it is being found to have neuroprotective/regenerative properties for other brain disorders. [/QUOTE]
