[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 451598"] You don't need to wait for their diagnostic stuff to make an appointment with a Child Psychiatrist. Find one NOW and just tell them about whatever the school hired done and that the report is coming then go on to tell them about the rages: what causes them, how he acts, how many times he's been to an ER, etc. I don't know how much stock I'd put into a school-hired psychiatrist (unless they're a neuropsychologist). I've never heard of a school paying for a psychiatrist and no, you wouldn't be able to use them as a personal psychiatrist and they shouldn't be prescribing medications for him. Who prescribed the Ativan? I haven't heard anything about it for kids one way or the other. What I believe about any medication depends on who I hear it from and their experience (personal OR professional). It doesn't sound like therapy of any kind is going to work with him quite yet. Find a Child Psychiatrist NOW. This has gone on long enough. If his rages are as bad as they sound, ask the ER to admit him or refer you to somewhere that they can. You can't continue the way you are. It's time to become Warrior Mom. [/QUOTE]
