[QUOTE="BKS, post: 568270, member: 15374"] Thanks all. My difficult child would LOVE to have his own place but we live in a suburb of a large metro area and that is a tall order for even professionals. He will always need to be in some sort of roommate or group house situation. (He is very social so I think in a way he is better living with others anyway.) I guess what I am wondering is what will happen to him if he loses his current housing situation and we refuse to let him bunk here. I need to remember that some people don't have family and there are resources around. I just WISH he would realize that he has substance abuse issues and get help. I believe he will get help for the potential bi-polar issue. The doctor at the facility he stayed in briefly prescribed Theraquel (sq?) to help him sleep and he said it really helped him. He didn't keep up his doctors appointments to continue the refills and he says his current house is such that he couldn't sleep anyway. Just don't know why he keeps making decisions that work against him. I DON'T UNDERSTAND. [/QUOTE]
