[QUOTE="klmno, post: 209948, member: 3699"] Thanks, DDD. I have to be very careeful what medications I take for a few different reasons, but it is tempting to take one of the ativan psychiatrist rx'd for difficult child. I have a phone number for a therapist who works with difficult child's therapist. He gave me the number on Mon and I'll try to call tomorrow for an appointment. The last guy I had left a message with called me back. He took the info and asked if I felt difficult child needed an Residential Treatment Center (RTC). I said I thought it would be a lot cheaper if someone would just help out so I could work full time, then I could keep private insurance on difficult child and keep his psychiatrist and therapist private, but that there are times when difficult child is manic and I do need help with things because difficult child doesn't always meet the acute definition that allows a psychiatric hospital stay. He said he would make some phone calls and see if he can get a CM involved to discuss resources with me and would I accept them if they could be provided. I told him that if they can actually provide resources instead of just sending someone over to make more demands on me, that I will accept them. I told him that the way things got to this point was by me depleting every resource I had trying to keep my son at home and give him the best treatment (MH treatment) that I could find. But, when I'm being told time and time again that I/difficult child don't qualify for any help, then I need to accept that and find a way to get him somewhere where his needs can be met so that I don't end up having to move him into the car to sleep. He said he would look into it and call me - that it should be tomorrow. [/QUOTE]
