[QUOTE="comatheart, post: 372067"] husband and I took difficult child to the Doctor today to discuss changing his medication and to also give him a drug test. (difficult child thought we were going to the Doctor for a Sports Physical that he needs for school.) While difficult child was out of the room doing an eye screening we discussed the slight possibility of Disinhibition due to the Celexa with the Doctor. (something I read about on one of the threads here) The Doctor disagrees and said he's never seen it from Celexa and dismissed that as a possibility. He agreed that the medication needs to be changed based on difficult child's actions but instead of changing them himself, he's referred difficult child to a psychiatrist. The drug test came back clean, which I was expecting. I really don't think that's playing a role here as difficult child doesn't have money or the opportunity at this time. I do think he has used in the past, but not since school got out. I AM however worried that school is about to start again and difficult child seems to be doing everything he knows not to. We did notice while in the Doctors office that difficult child has cut himself on both legs and his upper arm. He carved a cross in each leg and his arm just looks like cuts going 2 different directions. :frowny: This is really happening isn't it. I mean, that probably sounds stupid, but I guess I still find myself thinking "He's okay, it's a teenage rebellion thing, he's just testing us" etc ARGH!!!!! I'm so very sad. That psychiatrist can't call me soon enough. [/QUOTE]
