[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 250642"] Our difficult child never had luck with Geodon. In fact, it caused many problems with- depression. However, her doctor tells me that others did very well with it. Lamictal has been a very good medication for her. I have heard a lot of positives about it. Again, it's hard to say...folks are individuals. Generally, I can tell you that Lamictal, therapy and time has made a huge dent with reference to raging and this is a blessing. She also takes Seroquel for sleep and I do believe this helps a little with raging as well. Abilify has been a helpful medication and might be one to ask the Dr. about. Generally, Lamictal and Abilify were used to stop raging and Serqouel for sleep...but may have had some input to stop raging as well. I recall well how much damage the raging brought to difficult child and our family. difficult child was always so over sensitive; particularly at school. She would have explosive reactions when other children would be sarcastic, etc. Sometimes, there didn't seem to be any logic to her reasoning or reactions at all. At home, she was usually better...happier. There are now other concerns causing issues unrelated to raging....but the raging was a "biggie" that is significantly better. [/QUOTE]
