[QUOTE="Kyanasama, post: 165752, member: 5435"] Hi there! He was initially evaluated at the Psychiatric ER here in Charlotte. All they did was meet with us for 5-10 minutes over the course of 8 hours and then sent us on our way with a referral to get therapy. Of course he was lucid at the time they saw him. He was half asleep at midnight. We've not seen a decrease in rages or the severity. In fact, its getting worse if nothing else, just because he's out of school. He does okay, grade wise at school and his behavior is fine amongst 20 other kids. He gets lost in the masses when other kids in his class are replaying gang shootings. He sees an Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) 2 times a month and we've only seen her twice, but she mostly just listens and then says "Well, spend some more one on one time with him." Which we do already, or at least try to. Then she meets with him for another 15-20 minutes and tells him that its important to listen to us. He doesn't answer most of her questions, I gather, because either he doesn't quite understand what she's asking or he's scared of the unknown consequences if he acts out. [/QUOTE]
