[QUOTE="cassiemoun, post: 423191, member: 11557"] Thanks Patricia. Yes, I'm with- Kaiser...they've gotta be the worst HMO when it comes to mental heath care. I am so frustrated with- them. I feel like they are so incompetent, that I'd rather pay cash for UCLA if we can hold out for it. He is very short fused, smacking his brother (and me) at the slightest frustration or provocation. He hasn't been going to sleep easily, staying up until 11 or 12 (He's on Intuniv and he was always asleep by 10 AT THE LATEST before the Zoloft reaction. He is rapidly moving from one thing to another (playing video games, playing pokemon cards, playing handball, riding his big wheel around). He's really mad at his best friend (and next door neighbor) and is proclaiming he's never going to be his friend again. He has this sort of smirk or "look" to him when I am talking to him. Several times today, I've tried to talk to him about what's going on and he is completely tuning me out. Yesterday, he had a huge meltdown and threatened to spill a huge Coke in my car, unbuckled while I was driving and refused to re-buckle. When we got home, he slid his arm across the countertops and cleared everything down to the floor and then took his Easter basket stuffing and threw it around the kitchen. And then screamed at me that this was all my fault for making him mad because I was taking away a sleepover that he was going to have that night. He's raged before. He's been super negative before. he's been very hyper before. This just looks different than before. If the Zoloft isn't in his system, he can he still be reacting to it? Can kids have BiPolar (BP) if they aren't ever depressed? [/QUOTE]
