Can any one help me with some answers. Our son was diagnosed with bp after 2 yrs of unexplained problems. He also has a drug problem. We sent him to a wilderness program to try and help with the drug issue. He has freaked out and thrown hot water in a counselors face. The counselor is ok but our son is out of the program. He has described rages and has been verbally abusive to us but never physically. He is on trilptal and that doesn't seem to help at all. The money and pain we have gone thru is becoming truly unbearable. Are these rages part of the disorder? He is 16. We are brokenhearted. It seems no one can help him. We feel horrible that we made a mistake sending him to this program when he was never medicated properly. Please help with any advice. Thanks
