[QUOTE="Babbs, post: 51736, member: 3820"] My heart goes out to you - it sounds like you've been through a lot. The only extended care residential pysch hospital for teenagers that I'm familiar with in Washington is Ryther - unfortunately the student needs to be a ward of the state to enter it, it's run by DSHS. 9 days in an acute ward is not nearly enough time for any pscyhiatrist to get medications stabilized. Having had experienced adverse reactions to mood stabilizers (both Lexapro and Effexor) I can definitely understand if the increased aggression is caused by the medications. I only had to put up with it for 2 weeks but orignially my physician decided I was bipolar which was why I was reacting the way I did (which I'm not)and tossed some heavy duty psychotropics at me to counteract the Effexor. I would certainly seriously question the prescribing physicians regarding possible adverse reactions to his medications. [/QUOTE]
