[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 137660, member: 1233"] Please don't feel bad for wanting him placed in residential. Your mommy instincts are telling you he will hurt someone and you want to prevent that. This is a GOOD thing. The neuro testing came back fine. That is GOOD. HAs he seen a neuropsychologist? They seem to do very in depth (takes several sessions) testing. And they can get better results, because they get more info. I know the prozac may seem "logical" but have you read the bipolar child? It is an amazing book, and it shows in many ways how antidepressants are NOT good things for bipolar children. Often bipolar patients need TWO mood stabilizers, and sometimes an antipsychotic also to be able to even TRY an antidepressant. I would first talk to the doctor about getting him off prozac and onto another mood stabilizer. OFten it is hard to find the right COMBINATION of medications to help our kids. Hugs, Susie [/QUOTE]
