As some of you know, my son had a bad psychotic episode last week. He spent the night in the ER because the psych ward didn't have any beds. He has been on zyprexa and it seems to be working but he's still not himself and I'm worried about him. He has a pdoc appointment today and I'm really hoping he can help my son.

I'm hoping his pdoc can help him. Just make sure he know's that the only way the pdoc is if he's completely honest.

I hope your son will be open with the pdoc and will feel well understood. I hope the pdoc will be very helpful.
Much love to you and to your son!  WC

My husband is going with him, so if he's not being totally honest, my husband will speak up and let the pdoc know everything that's been going on.

He just got back and the pdoc is keeping him on zyprexa for another month and then switching him to cipralex.

His pdoc does not think he has bipolar. He said that the psychosis was from him going off the abilify. He said the symptoms he is trying to treat is anxiety and depression.

I made a mistake. The pdoc is putting him on the cipralax and zyprexa at the same time.
