[QUOTE="5Angels, post: 311152, member: 8153"] I really appreciate the thoughts and insights. I hadn't made a correlation between her spending the night with a friend and the issue over her medications. See? It helps to have others share their thoughts as well. Today, there was no issue with her medications. To answer your questions, yes my 11 year old is one of my 4 difficult children. She has been on her current dosage of medications for about two years now. She attempted to slit her wrists 2 years ago, which started the whole therapy/medication action. It took a year to get her stabilized on her current medications. I'm hoping that this was just a rare occurrence and not a glimpse of things to come. Every time we change her dosage, she has to go see the psychiatrist on staff at the Counseling Center where her therapist is. She cannot stand him, but he is the only one licensed to prescribe medications. She loves her therapist, so I can't complain too much. We live in a rural area, so the counseling center is the only medical resource available to us, without traveling 240 miles to the next closest one. Thanks again for your advice. I really appreciate it.:winking: [/QUOTE]
