[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 192492, member: 1550"] Ok, this is very bad for you. First of all, are you in therapy? Do you feel the medications are working? Obviously your difficult child is making you worse, but you need to be at your best to stay sane for all. I suffer depression myself and know how it can debilitate you. I'm sorry about your job. Been there myself. Secondly, has your son gotten worse since being put on Prozac? Prozac made my daughter violent for the first time ever. She pulled a knife on herself. Since then, she refuses to take anti-depressants and has never had any episode like that again. Some times the medications that are supposed to help us make us even worse. ADHD stimulants and Straterra can also cause increased violence. You may want to look into the medication. It sounds like a small thing, but these are powerful medications and can really affect our kids--if you take medications yourself, then you know! Ask your social services if you can get your son into an Residential Treatment Center (RTC) to stabilize him. That's one thing I would do. It can't hurt to try. [/QUOTE]
