[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 445695, member: 3444"] Well, it does sound promising that he is able to let go and not be so locked on when things heat up. I really do think that's a good sign. Is he still seeing a therapist regularly to continue work on the cognitive part? If you can keep the emotional piece under control, it will be much easier for him to do the internal self-talk when things start to go awry. I'm very glad the neighbors are being helpful -- it's not surprising they are having a hard time grasping the seriousness of it. Most people think this kind of drama only happens in the movies, sad to say. I think having wife take him away for a visit would REALLY do YOU some good! And I'd bet he's able to hold it together for a short time while away, but don't be surprised if he relapses when he gets home. It's a lot of work for these kiddos when they're not totally stable to maintain the appearance of an even keel when in fact there's a storm going on inside. Many hugs to you... [/QUOTE]
