Thank you for your input, this is what I was afraid of. I have done a little research, and Mania showed up when I listed some of his symptoms...I literally broke down in tears. I have actually contacted our family doctor (who prescribed this to him originally bc he refused to see a psychiatrist). They told me because he didnt put my name on the HIPAA form that they can't speak to me at all about anything. The only progress I made was convincing him that 75 mg was too strong and he should step down to 50mg. That was last month, and there is absolutely no change. If anything, it's worse. I spoke to my father about it all, and he is convinced also that this is serious and he is going to attempt to tell him that he doesn't seem himself and he should ask his doc to step him off of it completely. I feel like I've ran out of emotional steam to fix this. We got in a small argument last night, and he slept on the couch.....this is something he has never done! Even when we have been mad/screaming fits, we still resolved it enough to lay in bed together. This is becoming overwhelming.
