[QUOTE="buddy, post: 487903, member: 12886"] sounds like we are working with twin schools! when my son had his medication reaction the school psychiatric and admin has been wanting to know every detail, worried about what he is like now...blah blah. he has been there over two years and they know he is not normally like that. Our lawyer/advocate said to them, why are we writing this "crisis" plan? How many times has he had to be restrained. When they answered NONE she was like, really?????????? His principal wants hm out of hte building really badly too. When he had a meltdown last Friday I showed up and psychiatric was telling me he wanted to hurt me, ... UM, yeah, I said the same thing you guys did, THis is nothing new. I have done this for years and it will be fine. He argued and got the principal and I finally just said let me go to my kid. I had him out in about 15 gentle minutes. They wanted to be all authoritative and tell him he had to leave NOW etc. when we specifically discussed how that would panic him and make a tricky situaiton impossible. I am sorry you have to deal with that too. You sound like you did amazing! I HATE that the medication did that to him. I said the same thing, the only thing Q knows is how he felt on it, there will be a part of him that just thinks he feels and thinks that way, he can't possibly fully understand how the medication can actually cause this. It has made me be much more cautious. When he had medication reactions when little it didn't seem so upsetting as this time.... Now his self concept is really being affected. I dont really like what he is on now, but going off could cause just as many issues. YUCK. Your poor boy, I am sure he is devastated, and I am so glad he is is going to get help. If he is calmed now is the reason he is going there in case when you start a new medication then he is in a safe place to have them handle it? Keep on keeping on, you are amazing. [/QUOTE]
