[QUOTE="tessaturtle, post: 30793, member: 3510"] Thanks, Sheila, for that suggestion. I do have a copy of the book (bought it while I was also working with difficult child's on a daily basis). I would love to give info to ex, but she thinks she has all the answers now that she has taken a few classes [img]:frown:[/img] Yeah, DDD, I wish he did have a different prescriber of the medications as this guy is the one who caused the psychotic break with the "magic pill" (his words) of the Lithium/Abilify combo. SO doesn't like the idea of any medications at all, I have had to "educate" him that difficult child has a legitimate mental illness that has to have some medication in addition to counseling/therapy. He realizes this now, and is also realizing the importance of having the consistent therapy (difficult child has not had an appointment since release from the Residential Treatment Center (RTC)!). He tells me that he relies on me for the information (due to what I have learned in my professional life as well as I do all the research on the internet)! I wish sometimes that he would read it for himself so he can have this discussion with the ex! Thanks for the support! [/QUOTE]
