[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 746219, member: 1550"] Ok. I am fully awake and fed the dogs:) Ok, anything I write is only MY way of seeing things and does not apply to what others say. And it should be disregarded if the original poster thinks it is nonsense. Or bad feedback. This is sort of a trigger for me too (the situation going on ..a very sad one) because I had a dangerous child in my house and desperately dont want anyone else to experience it. Some kids are so damaged they CAN hurt, even kill. I want Bags to be safe. That is my first priority. I also have had more than average experience as a mental health patient and saw a lot. Its sad but true that a stint in even a great hospital promises no cure or a guarantee. I saw some people leave who were no better than when they came. Now 99 percent of the patients at Great University Hospital had very obvious bipolar 1 and forms of psychotic disorders. A very few were very depressed, like me. medications are extremely helpful for these problems although sometimes the schizophrenics could.not be helped by medications. That was always depressing. We did not have kids iniour hospital ward wirj just puzzling and disturbing behavior problems partly because nobody knew what to do about that back then. I am thinking that psychology still does not know what to do with people who have no remorse and dont mind hurting others, even family. To change the very core of one's personality to me requires a deep desire to change and a willingness to work very hard. Andany people who are currently diagnosed with tje trendy narcicism, antisocial or bprderline personality disorders (CD as kids) dont WANT to change amd are fine as is. So what can anyone do? I do not think every person CAN change. There is also that and it is JMO. Butaybe rhis is a part of wont. Psychology is an infant. There is more we dont know than do. This I was told when.I took.Sonic to Mayo.Clinic and tjey have some of the best anywhere and certainly DID pinpoint my L and help him. Bit again he had sympts.more than "bad" behaviors. Easier to figure out So my own personal jmo bottom line is to help the boy as much as possible. And in my opinion he may not want to change or try. But as mothers of course we try. Our hearts MUST try. And do I know for sure it wont work?No .Nobody does. Sometimes because psychiatry has so many u knowns that many times psychiatrists spew diagnoses and theories that are just opinions, like us. No more accurate than us. There is no science behind any psychiatric diagnosis. Many people are wro gfully diagnosed and put on very dangerous medications that can cause serious problems. The whole psychiatric treatment community makes me nervous due to lack of science. But its all we have right now. My biggest fear is that Bags may bring L home. Just MY opinion, he should not live at home. He can get treatment out of the home. Now every word here is only my opinion and what I think and should be disregarded if it doesnt resonate. Have a peaceful, delightful day and accept this cyber hug!! [/QUOTE]
