I'd appreciate your opinions of something a psychiatrist did - is this normal?

[QUOTE="Weary for Hope, post: 486032"] Thank you for caring enough to reply! I appreciate your words. Oh, I know what started the spiral. Well, he did wake up in a very bad mood today, so I was a little worried about tonight, being alone with him. He demanded that I go and buy him a Santa hat and coat. He said it was for a play they were doing at school. I asked him what class and he wouldn't tell me. FINALLY, he said that he had promised his 2 friends (he has a hard time making friends and this is good that he has a couple at his new middle school) that he would wear Santa apparel with them at school tomorrow (the 2 boys were wearing them today). So I was considering taking him (though not with him speaking rudely to me), but told him very clearly that it would have to be cheap - $5-10 at the MOST. He argued for at least $15-20 be spent (he is ALWAYS trying to get something from us). I would NOT budge not the $ thing. And that's what triggered it (but like I said, he was in a funk this morning). There is other stuff that happened, but something I did really annoyed him and he yelled, "SHUT YOUR TRAP!" at me. Needless to say, we didn't end up going to buy the Santa Hat. Yes, I was so glad that the doctor didn't give a quick diagnosis or prescription on the first meeting - - - as I'm a bit scared about this whole medication thing (BUT BEYOND READY FOR IT!) [/QUOTE]
