[QUOTE="Southern child, post: 307678, member: 8097"] He was diagnosed by the child psychiatrist. He sees him like once a month for medication evaluation, the first visit was about a half an hour long. The therapist for the program T-BOSS(therapeutic behavioral something,something...) sees my difficult child for one hour twice a week at school and once a month at home and then she reports back to the doctor and they all go over everyone's case in what they call "staffing" meetings. As far as medications go, we tried to increase his abilify, let me start by saying 7 months ago when we first introduced abilify it was like a magic drug, he was the most lovable sweet and cooperative child ever. Now we are back at square one again. Anyway, when we increased the abilify his aggression got worse so we backed down to 5mg again. He has tried him on addiroll, made him cry constantly and another ADHD medication I forgot the name but it made his symptoms worse, we even tried tenex, saw no change with that. I really dont see any change with the strattera either. Do you have any experience with depakote?? I wonder if he has bi-polar? And why does he only act up at school? I don't know what an IEP at school is, so I guess he does not have one. Any suggestions????? Please [/QUOTE]
