[QUOTE="Bunny, post: 394520"] What usually happens when we go to the therapist is that we both go in and the therapist will ask how things have been since the last time we were there. He'll ask for examples of behavior that I am talking about so that he can ask difficult child about it. Then I leave difficult child alone with therapist so that they can talk about things. Sometimes if therapist feels that something has come up between them he will ask difficult child if he can talk to me about it when I come back in so that I can see things from difficult child's point of view. At the last visit, however, it didn't really go like that because difficult child stormed out of the office because he didn't like the behavior we were trying to address. therapist feels that right now we have to get difficult child on the right medication before we will be able to really get down to the nitty gritty of why difficult child behaves the way that he does. What emotions are driving his tantrums? Why does he get so upset over small things? We are hoping that once we see how well he tolerates the Risperdal and it seems to take some effect on him that we will be able to get him to go further with the therapist. We are all one the same page at this point (husband and me, therapist, and psychiatrist) which is a good start, I think. Pam [/QUOTE]
