[QUOTE="LostSoul1, post: 677782, member: 19755"] Hi Lizzie...you posted on my thread end of December.....have been going thru my own personal hell with my son also. After he was released from the hospital for a drug overdose he came back home to live with me. I told him he could as long as he attends the mental health program everyday for the next 12 weeks. It is supposed to be really good. So i have had the burden of getting him up every day at 6 am and driving him the opposite way i work...and then driving back to work. It is exhausting. I too am finding helping him....is not helping him, it is making things worse. He was home since Dec. 21....last nite Jan 22..had to have him leave with the police. He was verbally abusive, threatened to harm me and ended up breaking my flat screen tv after he realized i called the police....he is now at a youth shelter... Having a crappy weekend and feeling like crap....he has bipolar disorder, adhd...i am torn. I want to help him...but he won't help himself. Lizzie, you need to take care of yourself. Sheltering him isn't helping. If you suspect he may be suicidal, then i would call the police.....he will have no choice if you think he is a harm to himself or others. Sometimes that is what is rquired to get him the help he needs. [/QUOTE]
