difficult child takes 37 1/2 mg abilify, and has for a long time, so he must have a very high tolerance to it. That is the max dosage. I just got a call from husband that difficult child punched him in the nose which broke a blood vessel, lots of blood, but nothing broken. He called 911 and EMS came to look at him, said he was okay, and to "relax". We have run out of choices for medications, he's pretty much tried them all. I'm pretty sure he trialed Seroquel in the past and that it even increased the aggression. The diagnosis's and an imbalance in his brain are causing his aggression, not the medications. This is the type of behavior that led us to medications, and they do help, but not enough, and he doesn't even want to improve. He refused to go to all but a fraction of the anger mgmt class we signed him up for. He was born very difficult, from day one. He had several evaluations, and all point to only Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)/not otherwise specified, ODD & ADD.
