[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 764442, member: 3419"] Hi everyone, here it is, one Christmas later. I did not realize I hadn't checked back. Christmas 2022 went well and we did not delve into personal topics. Way too hard to do on a holiday, and even more so with toddlers and babies. I am working on a full length poetry book about raising my son. Not worried about him seeing it--he hates poetry! :) I am trying to get my son to call a doctor or nurse practitioner for a medication update and diagnosis update, but you know how hard it is after bringing the horse to water. Son has been suicidal a couple of times, and I received a desperate call from him just as we were leaving our hotel out West, the day before Labor Day. Son was home alone and had his gun with him. I talked him down while my husband called 911. by the way, you cannot call 911 from another state. He called our home town non-emergency police number and had them relay the information. Terrifying and crazy-making. Son spent several hrs in hospital (went willingly) but they handcuffed him to a bed and left him alone for a couple of hrs while waiting for an intake interview. Sheesh! He lied and said he had no plan so they let him go home. If he had stayed, he would have gotten the medication adjustments he needs. He's on the same lithium dose he was on in HS, and if he truly is bipolar, I cannot imagine why he's on Prozac. To my knowledge, he has not had any more affairs, but he did bring home a foster dog--which you know means he will keep it after it is healthy and adjusted.
