[QUOTE="scaredofhim, post: 625904, member: 17051"] firehorsewoman, SS is not on lithium or any other mood stabilizer. Why, we don't know because I know that with bipolar it is common to be on lithium or something else similar. He is on Abilify, a stimulant for his ADHD, and an SSRI. Everything we have read says that SSRI's are not good with bipolar but bio mom insists he needs it for anxiety and depression. I guess the psychiatrist agrees. SS sees a psychiatrist, an in-home therapist, and a child psychologist. Nothing is helping....nothing. Yes SS did just make the A/B honor roll and doesn't act up in the classroom so far. He only has meltdowns at the beginning of the school day when bio mom takes him to the school and tries to get him to go inside. The psychiatrist, the psychiatrist, the in-home therapist and the psychologist all know how bad this is. The psychiatrist and the in-home therapist have both told her to file the unruly charges against SS. Bio mom went to the prosecutor months ago and did all the paperwork. All she had to do was to go to juvenile court and file it but she refuses. I don't know how bad it has to get for her to do it. He's already threatened to kill bio mom on many occasions and he has made a serious verbal threat to me as well. husband and I are stressed to the max. I never feel well anymore and that scares me. I am not young, and neither is husband, and this is very mentally and emotionally draining. I am sure it's not good for our physical health.
