[QUOTE="klmno, post: 158090, member: 3699"] Here's how the therapist statement came out- He was telling me about all these urges to get into the smoking, drugs, etc. I was saying why this was not the answer. He said "well, you know, medications just don't take care of everything and sometimes, things still feel strange, no matter what medications I have been on". I said "no, medications won't take care of it all, that is why we are seeing tdocs" (we are seeing 2) Then, he says "well, what good is that doing, all XX ([I]his individual therapist[/I]) has told me is that it won't mess up my medications if I only do a little- so you ([I]meaning me[/I]) lied to me". Now, given that there have already been some doubts I have had about this therapist, how would you take this? on the other hand, my difficult child is a very crafty lier at times when he is in this "mode". Another thought about what Sara or Janet one said- I do think he is starting to like hypomania. He also mentioned that he felt pretty energetic today and was glad because he had been tired for so long on the other medications. I think this is because his dose of risperdal is still low. I was going to leave it at a half, but I went ahead and raised it to one tonight because I am worried. He had been sleeping fine and acting fairly well on 1/2. Now, I just hope this doesn't zonk him out so he feels worse again. [/QUOTE]
