[QUOTE="crazymama30, post: 447513, member: 3184"] Seriously, I am one state up from you. difficult child has OHP Plus, which is full medicaid but my private insurance is primary, medicaid is secondary. therapist did not think that would be a problem. I called her earlier this afternoon, but have not heard back yet. It is worth a try, we could certainly use something that would involve the whole family. There have been so many budget cuts that I just don't know what is still available. Hopefully I will hear from therapist tomorrow. psychiatrist will be back in town Monday, and difficult child is getting a bit better. He still has explosive moments, but overall is getting much more rational. I would like to taper him down on the abilify and add a mood stabilizer, maybe trileptal or depakote? I know when we first started with psychiatrist she said she did not use Lithium or Tegretol in kids as she though the side effect profile was too harsh, which is fine with me as I don't want to have to worry about his water intake for Lithium in the summer, and while Tegretol works great for husband, there really does not seem to be much of a link between what works for him and what works for difficult child. Lamictal did nothing for husband, and abilify gave him tardive. difficult child does well (when he does well) on the combo, and has never shown any side effects from either medication and has not had much of a weight gain from the abilify either.
