[QUOTE="waytootired, post: 48554, member: 3791"] I can say that coming off antidepressants nearly put an end to our family. The AntiD just wasn't enough anymore for my son,(11 yrs. old)and we now know he is more than likely Early Onset Bi-Polar (EOBP), not just depressed. He became delusional, violent and really mean, holding knives to us, cussing at us, destroying rooms, throwing furniture, the whole bit. (He was on Effexor). It took a solid week and a half, someone with him 24/7 to get it out of his system. (And this was coming off slowly, not cold turkey). In the mean-time,(no pun intended), he started Risperdal and WOW !! it was day & night difference. He has been on this medication for 9 months and really doing well. He now reminds us it's time for his medication because he likes the way he feels. I can say that I love him again. [/QUOTE]
