My son is ASD, ADHD. His previous dr. said he was bipolar but was not going to diognose unless he had to be hospitalized. We went to a psychiatrist after his first suicide attempt. He was on lamictal, abilify, and daytrana. We moved and now he's only on daytrana. He's been suicidal and picking at his skin to the point he looks like he has the chicken pox and walks around bloody. I can't keep up with the wounds. He needs his meds so we'll see how his doctor handles it in three months.
Before going the traditional we tried to teach him our coping skills, had him in sports, every socail activity we could find. We resorted to learningRX while that help we needed more help when we found out the suicide attempt.
