A little backstory....Little Bear started having a relapse of his aggressive/violent behavior about 6 days ago which was a shock. We tried to raise his Seroquel then lowered it back down which was the only medication change we made. He was put on Celexa which really helped the aggression and we had one good month! We are now going back to the Dr. on Monday to try a new form of Tenex - Intuniv.
He saw the neurologist and had a normal EEG, she also put the papers through to try to get him in quicker to the children's hospital psychiatry dept.
Now to the disturbing symptom... I asked him last week why he was starting to get so angry again and his response after prompting him I wouldn't be mad by anything he tells me was
" There is a soldier in my head that wants me to do bad things. If I don't he will give me a headache"
Have any of you heard similar things from your Bi-polar children?? I am really scared now about Schizophrenia even though I don't think he meets the whole criteria. Please give me any advice you can!!! THANK YOU!
