[QUOTE="PersonalEnigma, post: 117046, member: 4457"] Wow, thanks for the quick responses! It happened at the end of the day and the aid restrained him (he never got to the knife). My dad was there minutes later picking difficult child up, so there was no time to take him anywhere. He was completely calmed down by the time he got home. He just moved from 18mg to 25mg. He weighs around 60lb (I don't remember exactly). The 25mg is supposed to be correct for his weight - actually on the bottom end from what I understood. He's only been on the medications since just before Christmas, so not long at all. He was doing very well until the higher dosage. I don't want to just drop him off the medications, but will go back to 18mg tomorrow. They are capsules, so I can't split them or anything - the doctor will have to give me a lower dose to wean him. I couldn't call the doctor today, but will be calling first thing tomorrow morning. I told difficult child yesterday that if he tried to hurt himself I would be taking him straight to the hospital. The wanting to be dead comments are not new :frown: He's never made any suggestion that he would do something about it though :frown: I feel so bad for the poor teachers etc - they are trying so hard with him and to have him calling them murders and stuff... It was scaring some of the other kids too. [/QUOTE]
