[QUOTE="tictoc, post: 363614, member: 7916"] Hi all, I've posted a bit in the past month about difficult child's latest mood cyclying...In the past 6 weeks, he has had two hypomanic periods and a lot of depression, with maybe two good days. We have switched from Trileptal to Depakote ER. Thus far, Depakote isn't working out so well. difficult child has been nauseas off and on for about 3 weeks. So.... Today husband and I met with the neuropsychologist as a prelude to our appointment with the psychiatrist on Friday. We went without difficult child so we could lay out everything that has happened and get the neuropsychologist's opinion on all of our medication options. We discussed Lithium, Abilify, Geodon, and Lamictal as possible next options, if the psychiatrist wants us to stop Depakote. husband still has reservations about antipsychotics and I have reservations about Lithium. We discussed Lamictal in particular because difficult child generally seems depressed. I would appreciate any thoughts you might have. [/QUOTE]
