[QUOTE="galadriel, post: 189088"] Oh wow, found this thread on a really BAD day with difficult child. Over the weekend he was so volatile, I called for an appointment with his psychiatrist's NP. He refused to go, so I went. She thought the current medication regime wasn't working, so suggested he stop taking all and I was to call in a week. What WAS she thinking? He lasted a day without medications and blew, he threatened to kill his brother (five different ways - knife, shotgun, rock to skull, break his neck and rip his guts out with his bare hands) over $20 brother owes him, so bad that I had my husband pick up the brother for his own safety. difficult child called me about 5 times at work, called me every name in the book, if I called the cops I "was dead to him". Finally he calmed down enough to state he would take some medications for $20 and a pack of cigs. By this time I was on the phone with the NP who said if he got that bad again to have the police bring him in for in-patient admission. (He's never been). Now he has walked to a friend's and we haven't heard from him. husband wants us to go to bed and let him get home on his own, or stay away. difficult child is making our life hell as when he is on his medications, he's subdued and hostile, and off his medications he's in a constant rage. the frustrating part is that the dr's just throw medications at him and no one seems to really know what his diagnosis is (they settled on atypical bi-polar). He is also a pot smoker and who knows what else, but he can't drink because the Seroquel/Southern Comfort combo makes him vomit. :raspberry-tounge: husband is ready to throw him out! But I heard of a recent local case where the parent took the difficult child to the ER for similar behavior, and they decided it was not mental health but behavioral, and said "take her home" . Parent said no, I don't feel safe, and now is indeed in court for neglect.:knockedout: Original poster, I feel for you, and figure the whole pregger girlfriend thing could very well be right around the corner for us too! He's done everything else..... Thank you all for being here on a night like this. [/QUOTE]
