[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 658235, member: 1550"] Can you give us some background on him? It may be different than needing psychiatric drugs. He could be using recreational drugs and that makes the young adults nasty. Does he go to school? Work? Do chores about the house? Do you have other kids to worry about who have to watch him as he disrespects you. Is t his ok with you or are you thinking of maybe setting some boundaries and, if he crosses them, make him leave and grow up? What is your plan? He is too old for you to do anything to change him. You can only change yourselves and your reaction to him. Is this husband his stepfather? Where is Dad? Does he lie, steal, assault you or deface your property when angry? Do you pay for everything, like his cell phone and car insurance and let him use your car? I'm sorry you had to come here. It is usually pretty bad if you find yourself here, but we are here to support you and give you are experience, which is massive. At his age, he needs to work on changing himself. The medications, even if he doesn't smoke pot or shoot heroin or do meth, can not do all the work. I have mental health issues. It takes hard work and lots of good therapy and he has to be willing to comply or he will not get better, and that is on his shoulders, not yours. Learning to control his anger is his issue not yours. Don't let him abuse you. Yes, our grown kids can and often do abuse us and usually we let them...at least at first. [/QUOTE]
