First, I want to say thank you to all those who gave me their support and some fantastic advice for what to do with my difficult child.
I finally got a hold of his psychologist and told him how my son has been dancing to a more aggressive tune. Unfortunately, his psychiatrist is on vacation and there's no backup doctor! The office took it upon themselves to reschedule my son's appointment for August. I can't believe they can do that when he JUST started a new medication which has, actually, just run out. The psychologist was pretty upset with this, as well, so he's trying to get my son in, asap, with the "thursday psychiatrist", and I hope he's successful.
The psychologist told me to take my difficult child off his medications to bring him back to his "normal" point, and we'll do a re-evaluation from there.
I asked for an evaluation for myself, as well.
Now, I'm just sitting back (more like pacing) and waiting for that call to run to the office and start picking brains.
I, also, drew up a behavior chart and today's the first day of trying it out. It states what my son does (in terms of incidents), at what time, and what happened just before the incident.
Wish me luck!
