A year ago my son (at that time he was 11) was diagnosed as Bi-Polar (severe symptoms). We have dealt w/ a year of him stealing, being very violent to me and his sisters, and violent fits of rages. We have him on Depakote, & Risperdol. He was on Seroquel but that was making his blood sugar too high. We need some help b/c he is getting stronger and bigger and we are scared he will hurt us. He sees a therapist once a week and a Dr once a month. He has been in 5 day treatment centers when he has his rages, but that doesn't seem to work. The Behavorial Health center we go to is trying to get him into a Residential Treatment Facility. His Pychological he had last summer recomended that. Any suggestions?
