My 11 yo daughter is bipolar and takes Lamotrigine. She always takes her medications with breakfast and never has an issue with it. In fact, if I forget to hand them to her, she always reminds me. It's the ONE issue we never seem to have to battle over. Well, that changed today. She spent the night with a friend last night and didn't get home until the afternoon. When I reminded her that she needed to take her medications, she just started screaming at me with the usual, "I hate you, you're the worst mother in the world, etc." I've been down this road a million times and don't take it to heart anymore (much). Just curious if anyone else has had the issue just come up out of the blue. I would appreciate your thoughts. When I questioned her as to why she didn't want to take them, I received that profound response of "Because".
Any thoughts?
by the way, she DID take them as she left the room.
