[QUOTE="Steely, post: 74645, member: 3301"] I agree.......feels wrong to me too, especially if you do not know anything about the place. I do agree, that he probably does need placement - but it needs to be in a place of your choosing. I would hunt around, and start interviewing places, and document everything like you have been doing, until you find the right place. There are some amazing rtcs out there - you just need to do some research. I would not take him to one sight unseen, just because this center wants you to. I would tell them you need a month to research the situation, and then you will be ready to place him. If you think you need help asap then place him into a phosph - they can keep him there until you find the right environment for him. In fact, psychiatric hospital can help you locate the right place........that is part of what they do.........so perhaps that would be the best route. Good luck - and stay strong. You are his only ally and advocate - he needs you to fight for him, and make sure he is getting the best care possible - and you can do that better than any counselor, dr, or psychologist!
