[QUOTE="Alisonlg, post: 52138, member: 2894"] The problem is how "out of control" M gets (and we'll have to see how "stable" he is on the new medication). When he's raging, I am NOT able to control his actions. I can hold him to a degree, but I'll tell you I still have bruises healing from his admit 2 weeks ago! And when I work SO hard both physically and emotionally to get him somewhere (psychiatrist, school, etc.) those places are usually not prepared or willing to take him or deal with him...instead they think he's too unstable to be there. THIS is what I am anticipating. Trust me, I've been laying down the law for 8 1/2 years now...we've been consistant parents and we've not waivered. But if M goes out of control Thursday or Friday or even Monday, I don't know what I am going to do...I don't know what I am going to do with my 3 yr old and I don't know how I am physically going to dress/restrain/transport M to school. And will the school even TAKE him if I go through all of that effort and he's raging? Will it even be safe to transport him by myself? There have been times I've contemplated pulling over and calling 911 because I feared he was going to seriously hurt one of us with the way he was pulling my van apart. I'm scared. This admit has been so comfortable for him that I don't think they've really seen the true M. He LOVES it there in the psychiatric hospital. I'm afraid of what is going to happen when he comes home and I don't know who I can turn to when the other shoe drops. [/QUOTE]
