[QUOTE="sabrah, post: 175756, member: 5597"] thank you both for your responses. I will get around to making a profile soon, daytime here is hard to do much on the computer. The 13 yr old is on Geodon and has had amazing results, she missed one day about a month after starting and literally returned to old behavior but it is strange how once you have had a respite from the old behavior if it returns you actually realize how insane and intolerable that behavior is. I thought I would die with one day of what I had dealt with for so many years , (never thought it was pleasant but survived it ,i guess you survive what you have to when you have to. Any way, second child ,9yr old, is on risperdal, basically chose that one because it comes in lquid form l, we tried prozac for him orignally and that was a disaster , (as with the 13 year old). He is not aware that he is taking medications , because; a. he would refuse and b, his father (my ex) would make a big scene, he is very angry guy, especially with me , and knowing about medications would give him fuel to cause rift between our son and myself. Of course reason B is the cause for reason A. My son told the psychiatric that he does not need medications because hes not crazy, if anyone needs them it mom (basically quoting dad). By the way I have no diagnosis and am quite stable, except for the fact that I am dealing with all this plus an ex trying to sabotoge my getting them help. 9yr old does not have any concentation difficulties just uncontrollable rages that can become very violent both verbally and physically. He cusses something terrible, (I do not cuss). He is in therapy but have not really gotten anywhere with it and now we are away for the summer so will basically start over in fall, switching to play therapy because the traditional sit down and talk was not working at all. As I think about it I realize also that our therapist was female and he probably would have responded better to a male, hmm... Any way he also did not respond well to the psychiatric basically because we are all crazy, not him, as he would put it. [/QUOTE]
