[QUOTE="rebelson, post: 690346, member: 19966"] Hi Shannon, I'm sorry you had to find us here. I also am VERY familiar with the guilt/fear of something horrible happening to them, and find it very hard to turn phone off, even for an hour. Even when my sanity might be screaming for a 'break'! When he was evaluated by hospital for mental health diagnosis, how long had he been 'clean'? I ask because my own son was prescribed Seroquel a year ago by a psychiatric MD that I sent him to. Since Seroquel is mainly for bipolar, I assumed he was diagnosed with bipolar, though son wouldn't share the specific details with me. I was skeptical of this diagnosis, didn't really agree with it, from what I know of son. Long story short, son ended up taking the medication for around 2 months, then quit. Son's been clean for over 60 days now and the most recent psychiatric MD who treated him in residential said he '[I]did not see any overt signs of any mental illness[/I]'. I can tell you one thing for sure though, when my son uses hard liquor or takes 'speed' pills, he acts off the charts psychotic, bipolar, hostile, you name it! Hugs to you and you are in the right place for support, strength. :angel2: [/QUOTE]
