[QUOTE="oceans, post: 20009, member: 2687"] I am just really frustrated with how things are going. I was thinking we finally had a chance when the psychiatrist agreed to add the lamictal. Now they are just messing around with anti depressants. We have been messing around with those for 3 years with no positive results. They want to increase his Zoloft to 200 mg even though I told them that at 250 mg he had extreme cognitive dulling. I am starting to think that this whole hospitalization was and is a waste of time and a big mistake. I just want him started on the Lamictal and to come home. I know that he needs help, but if he has gotten out of going to therapy by being threatening, and gotten out of interacting with us just by saying he does not want to, this can't be good. I am sick to death of the antidepressants that do not work, and that have caused worse reactions sometimes then when he was not on them at all. I am sick of the system that only wants to pump him with more and more of them. I do not see this as a good plan. I am sorry to be like this, but I am feeling so very frustrated and alone right now. We have a meeting with them on Thursday of this week so they can tell us what they would like to do next and what they suggest. I hope that I can calm myself down before then. [/QUOTE]
