    Tink...

    First of all, my computer finally crashed and I am just now able to use it again. Sorry for my absence...and when I needed it the most too!

    So Tink ended up staying in the phosp for a month. Last Monday they discharged her. I knew she wasn't ready. The very next day she went back in.

    She seemed great, and asked to go back to school. She attended school on Tuesday and did "preeetty good" according to the teacher. Came home, had a snack, and when I pulled out her homework she went nuts. Throwing furniture around, smashing food into the walls and grinding it into the carpet, took a sharpie and wrote "LOSER" on the bathroom vanity. I called 911. When the cops showed up she ran out onto the patio with the intent of jumping the bannister to get away. We live on the 2nd floor. Thank goodness the cops caught her. I have never in my life seen her like that before.

    I asked the doctor to take her off the Lithium. She is still on the Seroquil. I am numb and ready to jump the balcony myself. I have to get rid of my cats before she comes back again, she is terrorizing them.

    Re: Tink...

    I am so very sad at how Tink is feeling right now. I wish her poor little brain could find some peace.
    I wish your heart could find solace right now. I know no amount of hugs or I am sorry can make things better.
    But my shoulder and my heart are here for you. My tears understand that feeling of wondering where you child went.

    Is there any talk of an RTC for her? This might be a choice she needs right now after she gets a bit stabilized.

    Try to hang in there, she needs you.

    Your sorry eyes; they cut through bone
    They make it hard to leave you alone
    Leave you here wearing your wounds
    Waving your guns at somebody new

    There's too many people you used to know
    They see you coming they see you go
    They know your secrets and you know theirs

    I am SO sorry that she is this unstable, is hurting this much. It just stinks.

    I have been keeping you close in my heart. Hopefully the docs will figure out a way to help her soon.

    Please take time whenever you can to rest and build your strength up. Our kids take a whole lot out of us.

    Just know that I am thinking of you, even when you cannot see me, or read my words on a monitor.

    Be gentle with my Kitty! Many hugs going to Tink also. She must be very scared.
