[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 340930, member: 1514"] Welcome Gran. You have come to the right place for some support from some wonderful folks who have been there done that with out of control kids. Has your dtr been this way most of her life or did she start all this stuff in early adulthood? Bipolar can start in childhood or can start in the late teens to early 20s for some people. Just wondering. I am kind of leery about the combo of the depakote and zoloft because zoloft can activate bipolar and make the mania and out of control behaviors so much worse. Any anti-depressants do that for me. Of course, there is nothing you can do about that. Im sure she wont listen to you...sigh. About the fighting, arguing, verbal and physical abuse, not taking care of the kids...well, honestly if it was me, if she actually was breaking the law, I think its time to sit her down and tell her its time to stop this juvenile behavior and that the next time she behaves this way you will call the police and then stick to it. If her kids are taken because of her lack of care, I believe they will look for a family placement first. We have had a few people here who have gone through that. Good luck. I can only imagine how hard this is. I have had to call the cops on my son several times. It is not easy. [/QUOTE]
