[QUOTE="scent of cedar, post: 78236, member: 1721"] <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: rejectedmom</div><div class="ubbcode-body"> He still isn't on medcation he isn't set up for a Physciatrist until the end of October. I try to stay detached but it is hard. I find that I have alot of anger just below the surface. </div></div> RM, I know everyone is going to say we aren't supposed to interfere, but have you already tried to up the appointment date? Or is that out of your hands. If it is, if you made the phone calls, if you took every action you could know to do, then your job at this time is to survive. You just had surgery yourself, not so long ago. You don't have a choice about detaching. You HAVE to practice detaching. Or you may not be here, or be able to help your son, when there IS something you can do. There have been times, when the feelings were overwhelming, that I screamed into and pounded a pillow until I could unnumb long enough to cry and rage about our situation. (Wouldn't want the neighbors to hear ~ Lord knows, they knew enough about us, already! [img]:blush:[/img]) You have to take yourself in hand now, RM. You know what you need to do. Do it. Get it out on canvas ~ are you able to paint again, yet? Mark the time and do what you can and focus on healthy choice. Can you choose and send difficult child a card of encouragement? Don't let on to him that you think what is happening is unfair. Keep working toward trying to move those appointments up, but if that doesn't happen, then difficult child is going to have to deal with whatever comes next. For better or for worse, you cannot do this part for him. But you DO want to be there, healthy and in one piece, when all this is resolved. I am so sorry, RM. You must feel like you are living in Hell. Barbara [/QUOTE]
