Thank you for the support.

I just got back from a meeting with the doc at the hospital; they want to take my daughter off her current medications (Abilify, Topomax, and Zoloft) and replace them with Risperadone and Lithium. She has been on these medications before (not at the same time) and did not do very well. The Risperadone caused her to sleep 18 hours/day and she was still experiencing hallucinations. While she was on the Lithium she cut herself 50+ times, was constantly angry, and ran away from home. I'm very upset that the doc wants to prescribe the Lithium even after I've made him aware that she doesn't do well on it.

My daughter is very upset and is bracing herself for a downward spiral.
