[QUOTE="tictoc, post: 363721, member: 7916"] Thanks everyone. Sometimes it is just nice to hear some words of support. My gut is telling me a few things right now. First, I want to take difficult child off imipramine. He only takes 6.25 mg/day and it has really helped with his Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), but I think we need to take him off that before we go the route of Lithium or antipsychotics. Second, difficult child can't tolerate Depakote, so we need to move on. Three weeks of nausea is too much. And, finally, the depression is getting worse, so maybe Lamictal should be next. I'm going to take the psychiatrist my timeline of difficult child's moods and nausea for the past 6 weeks and tell him that this is the direction I want to take. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
