[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 158224, member: 1233"] (((((HUGS))))) I agree he is unstable, and very scared, but also loving the drama. I think you may end up looking into Residential Treatment Center (RTC) or a longer term psychiatric hospital than the 3-5 day one. For cheeking, go get some tongue depressors AND a pill crusher. CRUSH any and all medications that are not time release. Mix them in something and then ahve him swallow that. For time-release medications, make him open his mouth nd let you fish around with the tongue depressor. It isn't perfect, but it is a beginning strategy. I also think you need a crisis plan. A "What to do if" plan set up for times like this. You might look on the archives or FAQ part of hte board for Crisis plan or emergency plan. [/QUOTE]
