[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 162901, member: 1233"] My son cut for quite a while. It is addictive. It releases endorphins and can produce a happier feeling that is very addictive. Zoloft has triggered violence and very scary violent thoughts in quite a few of the difficult children on this board, esp the male ones. It seems to occur a few MONTHS after they are at the therapeautic dose. It does go away, but it takes quite a while after you stop the zoloft. You ALSO need to get him in to a therapist and tell his psychiatrist. While my son stopped being violent to others, he still cut long after the medications were stopped because it is an addiction, and like other addictions it changes brain chemistry so it is a hard fight to stop. My son says he still fights the desire to cut several days a week. It used to be he fought it daily, so it is an improvement. this is a YEAR after he stopped. But he cut for over a year before we found out. PLEASE do whatever it takes to stop this NOW. It is NOT just him acting in an unintelligent manner, it is a sign he needs help NOW. Susie [/QUOTE]
