[QUOTE="Snow White, post: 701624, member: 355"] Hi Rebecca. I'm so sorry to hear of your situation. I can't believe that there is only a 24 hour hold where you are. In Canada, we have voluntary and involuntary psychiatric holds. The involuntary ones vary from 72 hours to 21 days. Does your son have a mental health diagnosis? Is he on medication? Sadly, most of our children are experts at the system - they know what to say or do to convince the professionals that they don't require hospitalization. Your son will need to decide that he needs help himself. I would be worried for my own personal safety and that of my family members. You need to make that your priority now. I hope that there are some government services close by that could be of assistance to your son. SWOT is right - you will probably need to take out a protection order. You can't allow him back into your house right now. Prayers and hugs being sent to you. [/QUOTE]
