[QUOTE="JKF, post: 574731, member: 12470"] Well I never heard back from the MH liaison. I emailed twice and called and left 3 messages. Nothing. Ugggh! I spoke with the shelter director and told her I'm worried and she said they are working really really hard on getting him MH help. In the meantime - he has agreed that if he feels suicidal he will go to the ER. I believe him. I don't think he really wants to die. He just wants help and wants things to get better. Hopefully once he's on the right medications things will get better. So anyway, I've been trying to think of anything that might help him gain some self confidence and feel like he has some control over his life. Something to keep him busy and out of trouble. He's a talented artist and he's a genius with computers. We were talking last night and it came to me - web design classes. I ran the idea past him and he loves it! He went to the community college today and applied. He has to go back at 1:30 to talk to the administrators and then go to the Financial Aid office. I'm happy that he's taking some steps to help himself and I'm proud of his determination. No matter what happened in the past or will happen in the future - I love him with all of my heart and I want the very best for him. [/QUOTE]
