I’ve looked back through your posts about how severe the problems are. I was curious if this one had been hospitalized since I remember your posts (vaguely) about that.

I understand all three of your teens are bipolar (from previous posting—how old are they now? I noticed you said they were 15, 17, and 19 over a year ago—but you listed the same ages the other day) and noted discussions of various medications and also your thoughts of withholding medications.

I assume the pdoc already knows of the mania risk since you’ve reported her bipolar over a year ago. If not have you informed him/her if you switched?

Please discuss with the pdoc. You can call the pdoc—you don’t need to wait for an appointment.
