[QUOTE="Steely, post: 450951, member: 3301"] Just a couple of questions. One - when he told the phosph he wanted to kill you - did you or they report that to the police? Second - for a kiddo that sounds as disturbed as your son, he is on a weird medication combo. When is the last time they did a medication wash at phosph??? Usually kids like this should [I]not[/I] be on prozac or SSRI's as they can overstimulate, and have been known in children to cause suicidal and homicidal thoughts. In addition he is on Abilify, which can be good to help organize his thoughts, and calm him down - but at this point all it could be doing is taming down the prozac side effects. While he is phosph I would suggest that he be put on a mood stabilizer - sometimes our kids need 2 of these. Plus an AP like Abilify or Ripserdal, Seroquel, etc Sometimes the combo of these 3 types of medications can do wonders. If you demand that they do a medication wash, the phosph will need to keep him there longer which will buy you some time. [/QUOTE]
