anyone know anything about bipolar disorder?
I have a 6yr old boy that was just diagnosed with bipolar and regular punishments do not work for him, even praises he could care less about. The only meds that the docs have out him on are geodon and i really do not think that is working. Does anyone else know of any different meds out there for bi polar, or what works with a bipolar child? Any kind of asisstance would be helpful. He had actually tried to pull a cops gun so he could shoot him, thats why i say its not working. Please someone help that has knowledge or experience with this. I love my child to death but dont want to see him hurt someone or himself.

yes its medical/ chemical imbalance or a genetic disorder where the person is happy one minute and then suicidal the next.
See the Listed Sites for good information on BiPolar Children….
bpkids.com is a good site.
I don’t know what kinds of meds they use for bipolar kids, but common meds for bipolar are lithium, tegretal, trileptal.
RItalin may also be helpful because lots of people with bipolar disorder have attention issues as well.
Dont browse for websites and waste valuable time. This is 100 % curable. Believe me. Consult a good psychiatrist. Spend money and time even if he loss some study time in school. Everything will be alright
The word “bipolar” is simply a label used to categorise a list of psychosocial traits that Psychiatry considers to be improper or abnormal in society. Psychiatry defines these traits as a “mental illness”, and promotes it as a “disease” that requires “treatment”.
It is not a “disease”, despite claims or implications made by certain psychiatric and pharmaceutical organisations. There is NO credible scientific evidence that shows the existence of what constitutes “bipolar” as a biological/neurological disorder, brain abnormality or “chemical imbalance”.
“For a disease to exist there must be a tangible, objective physical abnormality that can be determined by a test such as, but not limited to, blood or urine test, X-Ray, brain scan or biopsy. All reputable doctors would agree: No physical abnormality, no disease. In psychiatry, no test or brain scan exists to prove that a ‘mental disorder’ is a physical disease. Disingenuous comparisons between physical and mental illness and medicine are simply part of psychiatry’s orchestrated but fraudulent public relations and marketing campaign.” Fred Baughman, MD., Neurologist & Pediatric Neurologist.
“Chemical imbalance…it’s a shorthand term really, it’s probably drug industry derived… We don’t have tests because to do it, you’d probably have to take a chunk of brain out of someone – not a good idea.” Dr. Mark Graff, Chair of the Committee of Public Affairs for the American Psychiatric Association. July, 2005.
Symptoms that psychiatry labels as “bipolar” (or it’s related disorders), can stem from any number of variable sources. Many people, for example, have overcome “bipolar” through megavitamin therapy and effective nutrition. A growing wealth of evidence supports that underlying nutritional deficiencies can cause even the most severe mental disorders, including symptoms labelled as “schizophrenia” [See source refs]
Bottom line? Psychiatry is a belief-system, a “faith”, not a science. Despite the huge marketing strategies, the so-called “research” and all the propaganda thrown at the world, there is not one iota of scientific evidence that proves that “schizophrenia” or ANY mental illness, in fact, exists as an actual –medical disease–.
If you have been told differently then know this: You have been lied to.
