[QUOTE="Alisonlg, post: 46286, member: 2894"] Janet- This WAS our dischage plan! Give him his seroquel & strattera and send him to the Extended Day Program. That's it. Up until yesterday when he was triggered by knowing he was starting the Day Program today, his meltdowns/rages have been much more contained, shorter, and redirectable. This was the most intense I've seen since our second discharge and it was directly related to the "Program." In fact, when we had our in-take meeting at the program, I feared he would meltdown big time there, but instead, he "shutdown" intead and just clenched up and didn't speak or move. I guess yesterday was much more final and real to him. I don't know...maybe he's better OFF seeing a psychiatrist one-on-one instead of the whole program atmosphere right now...apparently it feels way to overwhelming to him. Besides, his new school is going to be a "program" atmosphere anyway/too. At least I think I'll feel more comfortable when I have a psychiatrist to call and bounce these kinds of things off rather than having all of the big decisions weigh on my shoulders alone. :::sigh::: Plus, I'd like some sort of diagnosis at some point too.
