[QUOTE="Ropefree, post: 230268, member: 6271"] Oh my dear...my rule of thumb is if YOU think he needs a 72 hour psyc evaluation in a hospital just call and ask them at the local suicide line asap. Chances are there is some type of outreach and they will come to him and see what is going on and if the hospital is ruled out or ruled in you can rest easier. You do not mention the age, and it is mot uncomon for a child to "act out" to show that the inside situation is needing some work. Especially boys who are not quick to share by talking. Claring his room and getting any things that he can hurt himself with safely locked away is a very good choice. THe canvus divided storage that hangs off the clothing bar is another easy way to have soft keepers for kids things. Right in a closet. I would definately get the crissis line in your area on this matter. They may hepl him and likely they will help guide you around what is in your area for that all hours type of contact so you are never really alone with this if you need to talk. And love this group too. When life is so touph it is a terrific comfrot to have all the practical know how that pops up on this board to check in with. [/QUOTE]
