[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 525939, member: 1233"] Hi! Others have given great advice. PLEASE get a private Occupational Therapist (OT) evaluation for sensory issues. If you don't have them then you have NO idea how much they can destroy you. I have always had them and there was never any real help for me. Even as a kid all that had to happen to destroy my day and almost everything was to put me into something that itched. I could not focus, function or cope and I was very explosive. Luckily my mom was partly raised by great aunts who dressed her the way old ladies thought girls should dress and that meant in itchy clothes. So she swore that her kids would NEVER wear itchy clothes. Bless her heart, she followed through 110%. Occupational Therapist (OT) help for sensory issues can do a LOT. My difficult child got a LOT more control once we were able to help with the sensory issues. If you have not read What Your Explosive Child is Trying to Tell You by Doug Riley, it is a must read. It can really help. The link in my sig will help you create a super powerful Parent Report - which is one of the best tools a Warrior Mom can have. It is a report ALL about your child and you take it to all appts and keep everything in it so that you can let docs/teachers/whomever have copies of the sections that will help them and you can get all the info they need to them efficiently. Moms here before me created the outline and the thread will help you create one. It truly is a HUGE help and well worth the time it takes to create it. As for risperdal, if it caused the prolactin problem then it isn't SAFE for your son to take it again. They can try other medications and should, but you have to understand that they are refusing to try it again for his own good. been there done that with medications and it is frustrating. I am not sure how to work it with your ex because I have never had one. But maybe the two of you could meet wtih a therapist to work things through for your chld's sake. You both owe your son two parents who work together because he needs that from you. He also should have an evaluation for assistive technology through the schools. There are a lot of ways that they can help him. I hope this helps! [/QUOTE]
