    Waiting for the other shoe...Send good thoughts

    Please! It's fall. Every fall since he was 14, gfg has entered a manic phase. I know it's coming. I can feel it. I have seen the signs.(porn sites visited, a possible theft from neighbors, staying gone all weekend!) I can hear it. There are constant text messages and phone calls about nothing. The last manic episode was not pretty and lasted until he was arrested in March. Please keep us in your prayers.

    Did you tell him you see signs of it? Would he stop to think at all about that?

    Thanks all for the good thoughts. I will speak to him about my thoughts later. He knows he has mental health issues---he uses when he needs to.

    Janet---he has no insurance for meds right now. He has been pretty much non-compliant since turning 19 about taking any.
