[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 366706, member: 2423"] With all due respect, wouldn't it be better to get your difficult child into the new facility and then try to do the medication wash? Wouldn't that be safer for you and difficult child? When we left a psychiatrist who we felt was mismanaging the care of two of our children, I wrote this very straight-forward letter: [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3][/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]I am writing to advise you that my children, J and A, are now under the care of other mental health professionals.[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]Because of their challenging complex of symptoms , we believe a change in doctors is in their best interests.[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2][/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2][/SIZE][/FONT] [SIZE=2]I did not feel I owed the psychiatrist a long explanation, but my letter did serve to sever the relationship.[/SIZE] [SIZE=2][/SIZE] [SIZE=2]Good luck with whatever you decide to do.
