[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 99478, member: 1550"] Hi. Honestly, I don't think the cops will help him--he's sick--and violent because he's sick. If he is thought of as "bad" and taken to juvy hall, he will only get sicker and more violent. I can't see how that would help--I don't believe he's in control of everything he does, even though it may look like he is. I have bipolar and the medications he's on aren't very good at controlling bipolar. You may want to get a fresh opinion on how to treat him because this psychiatrist isn't helping him and counseling doesn't help unstable bipolar kids. I'm no expert, but I've heard some say that Geodon makes kids even more wound up and Clonadine isn't strong enough for your kiddo, in my opinion. Why isn't he on a mood stabilizer? Mood stabilizers are: Depakote, Lithium, Trileptal, Lamictal, Tegretal I don't think your child means to be "bad." I think he is very sick and out of control and needs more help, but he's obviously dangerous to you and your other children too. I would keep pushing for the state to help pay for a GOOD (and, yes, there are bad ones) Residential Treatment Center (RTC). This child needs to get on the right medications before anything will help him. (((Hugs))) [/QUOTE]
