[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 383897, member: 7083"] If you can't get him in the car, ask for police assistance. When you call, explain that you have a mentally ill child and you need assistance getting him into the car for a psychiatrist appointment. I would leave the taking stuff away until after the psychiatrist appointment. You're going to need something to use when he refuses to take medications. Other than that, don't engage him. If he wants to scream at you, let him, but don't respond. If he attacks you - I was going to say to something else, but with the level of control he seems to think he has, I would call the police. Not to have him arrested, but to have someone in authority tell him that he can't do that. They won't arrest him unless he tries to attack them, and at his age that's not even a given. They will tell him, though, (or should) that if they have to keep coming back, they will take him in. If you do call - or anytime you call - make sure to tell them that he is mentally ill. That's just my two cents. [/QUOTE]
