Is it helping? That's the million dollar question! LOL He's only been home just over a week and had only 3 FULL days of school. We've had a lot of oppositionality, a lot of hyperactivity (especially when he first came home), and 2 big meltdowns (one that included him smashing his head with the metal bottom of the shade repeatedly in his room and punching me in the arms). So, is the medication working? You tell me. I suppose it could be worse, but without consulting a psychiatrist I feel pretty 
lost in this whole process.
He's currently attending a day program now at the hospital that he was admitted to and the same Dr he saw at the psychiatric hospital oversee's the program, so I assume she'll be the one following his medications there too, but I feel so out of the loop.
Aside from the help he's getting at the day hospital and the minimal dosage medication he's on, I feel like we're still in the same place we were almost a month ago prior to his psychiatric hospital admit. ::
