Well heres the update. Anthony does not have the intermitted explosive disorder. The reason it was on the intake papers is because she originally when he first came in thought that was what it was. But she ruled it out already. So I guess we are just dealing with a lot of the violent issues from the bipolar because of the irritability. She changed his meds to abilify because he was having hand tremors on the risperidol. We are going to try him at an equal dose of the .5mg of risperidol and see if the knew meds help if not we will be upping it in two weeks. She is also going to be talking to the councler because I told her I didn't think that the councler had a clue. chreey
