[QUOTE="Sara PA, post: 172088, member: 1498"] How much of the extreme behavior you described started within the past year? I see red flags for an adverse reaction to antidepressants including the suicidal ideation, homicidal ideation, lack of impulse control (shoplifting), hostility. Other psychiatric adverse reactions common with antidepressants include anger, aggression, anxiety, restlessness, mania/mood swings. If some of his behavior is being caused or made worse by an adverse reaction to antidepressants, adding an antipsychotic is probably a temporary fix. It won't end or control the adverse reactions in the long run. Edited to add: I just noticed that your son engages in various forms of self harming. That's another red flag another for an adverse reaction to antidepressants. Has the self harming started or worsened in the past year? [/QUOTE]
