[QUOTE="WSM, post: 289788, member: 5169"] I do not like the lexapro, and I can't really say why. I think it makes him bolder, but most people think he's more alert. For a while before the depakote then now the risperdal, I thought it gave him an aggressive edge. But it's subtle and no one is going to listen to me. Risperdal is supposed to suppress hallucinations, so maybe they will up it. He already had a therapist appointment this morning. I printed off the recollection for my husband to take with him. I don't know if he will give it to the therapist or not. Last night husband did the weekly "I'm going to trust you, you say you want to build trust, well, here's your chance" thing with difficult child. He's done this every week for the last two years and every week, difficult child does something untrustworthy and last night was no different. husband's cell phone, which was on the patio table, is gone. Cellphone # 5 difficult child has disappeared. So there will be a lot to discuss with difficult child. therapist says he doesn't want to hear any more complaints about difficult child from us, (we have to expect this sort of behavior since we aren't putting him in an Residential Treatment Center (RTC)). Instead therapist wants to concentrate on difficult child's feelings about his bio-mom. I hope difficult child comes home with a recommendation that the risperdal is increased. I am concerned that he is hallucinating; I am also concerned that when he hallucinates, he's not hallucinating about dancing lollipops, but about missiles, shooting guns, fluff that's hard to explain, and other rooms with 'skin'. I will ask husband what the therapist said about the hallucination, but what do you want to bet husband reports that the therapist said it was not unexpected or anything to worry about. Except I've been there on two occasions when the therapist has quizzed difficult child about hearing voices or seeing things. therapist suspects. [/QUOTE]
