[QUOTE="Littleboylost, post: 717908, member: 21895"] The past 48 have been brutal. I am still a mess but not as bad as I was the other day starting this thread. I know that having DAC home is not a sustainable modle of health and wellness for any of us. I feel awful to put my son out again; but we can not endure this nightmare of addiction, psychotic outburst and all round crazinesss. A petition for a high risk status from the crown is under way (crown =DA for US folk). The crown can request the courts fomally ask that the next available bed in the long term rehab be given to our son. Until yesterday I didn't even know this was possible. It was initiated by a police officer and my sons out patient rehab worker. The rehab is government funded NFP and apparently they are ammenable to these request. Private rehab here is astronomical in price. $45,000 and up We are just recuperating from a business loss simply can't afford that. Putting a crisis action plan in place with husband tonight. If son does X call police. If son does Y call crisis intervention. If specific events and behaviors occur he simply must go. I did confirm that the rehab bed will not be compromised if we ask him to leave. No one wants to put their child out, but self preservation is critical. Mad, sad, frustrated and plain worn out.
