Hi, I also have a daughter who is diagnosed bipolar on depakote and abilify. She could get hallucinagenic before the abilify and very paranoid. She did the same thing with us, but it wasn't the cops, it was child welfare that investigated, we had her therapist, the teachers, and neighbors all support us. That was before the Abilify. My personal reaction, get her off the Zoloft. SSRI anti-depressants can trigger awful psychosis in bipolar kids. We have had our daughter admitted into a psych hospital for kids and I can't say it helped much, but it did take the strain off the rest of the family for two weeks. We have three other younger children. At the time they were 1, 3, 4 and she was 5. She is doing very well now and very responsive. She told me last month that she could hear what we were saying during those times when all those things were going on (she use to take off her seatbelt and jump out of moving cars, break out windows, etc), but she just couldn't get her body to do what she wanted to. So there is hope. It takes time and patience, but God will help you. If you need any advice, feel free to ask. Love ya.
