[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 256297, member: 1233"] One thing that can help a whole lot is to keep a daily diary of mood, behavior and the like. There are many charts at sites online, or you can just use a notebook or calendar to write down what happened. I would esp note any violence and the trigger if known. I think it would be excellent to go to the psychiatrist with info such as "he has 4-5 violent outbursts a week where he hits people at home, and an additional 3 - 5 outbursts/rages at school where he hurts someone. These seem to be caused by unexpected events or being told no or asked to do any kind of work. The medicine helped this, but recently seems to be less effective. Can we try an increase in the medicine? Be SURE you take the notebook or whatever you use with you to the psychiatrist's office. he may want to look at it. It is a good idea to have copies of it at home though, just in case something would happen. You don't want to lose these records in an accident. [/QUOTE]
