[QUOTE="compassion, post: 483245, member: 6393"] As a parent who's difficult child recived no medications until age 15 and is on the highest dose of the anit-sycotic,abilify, I am grateful to these medications. GEG was just Baker acted last Sat. and in looking at options for longer term care, came acoss a Nar-anon faicility that appears to have Scintology ties. THey beleive in no medications, have the patients do6 hour detox sauna a day,eduction,etc. CBT and BA has been somewhat effrective but honestly the biggest help has been the antisycotic and mood stabilizers. The p-doctor at crisis stabilization lowered her abilifyto 15 and took her off topomax and on 300 lactimal a day. After 2.5 days she was released and she is back on her orignal medications. She is now taking 10 mg. ambian for sleep. I am very natural oriented and foundt medications for so many years but rally, nothing esle stopped the 3 hours rages but the antipyscotic. It is so ironic when I feel an overly drgged judggment. by the way, difficult child while she ahas medicaid becasue she has ssi-d, the medications are paid laregly by BCBS with realtively low co-pay from us. I am grateful for the medications. [/QUOTE]
