[QUOTE="bluebell, post: 710163, member: 16761"] Well, get a load of this guys! The rehab rejected him, said his needs were too 'acute'. Whatever that means. Referred him to some private, non licensed 50K rehab, the same rehab I asked my dad to pay for (who said he would pay any price - until he heard the price) a few years ago. All the hospital settings I thought were around here only offer IOP it turns out. So we decided to take him to one of the IOP places for an assessment this evening. At least it would be something. Couldn't get him to go, had to threaten to kick him out again. Got him in the car and yelling and screaming ensued between my husband and son. He said he needed more than outpatient, that he has seen people die and he's messed up in the head. So I said 'Tell them that, maybe they will admit you.' But he didn't, he went in there and signed up for the IOP, every evening and Saturday mornings. He won't go. I don't understand it. It's almost like he's dramatized this 'rehab' thing to his friends. I know I've gotten several 'Is he in yet?' texts from old friends since last week. I would be relieved I could sleep late, eat what I want and be able to go home to my own bed. But then I am not my son. feeling hopeless... [/QUOTE]
