[QUOTE="butterflydreams, post: 152322"] Thank you everyone for wonderful advice and support! Now onto answers: My daughter does have some security plans in place. We are placing a keyed lock on her bedroom door. She has a cell phone and she can call my boyfriend who lives about 1 mile away if necessary, grandma and grandpa live like 25 minutes away. I will also be talking with her on what she will need to do. I have to register him at the local school (even though school is out June 4th) on Friday, so he will be gone from the house until about 3pm. If he is home after school is out in June, I am going to look into Boys and Girls Club or something like it for him. I am definitely going to talk to his regular psychiatrist about his medications and see if he will switch him to something other than prozac since he was the one who took him off of it to begin with. [I]What happens if he becomes unstable? [/I] I have to take him to one of 2 emergency rooms for an evaluation. They only take admissions from the emergency room. The other place which was covered by my insurance before it was used up has their own assessment process and you don't have to go to the emergency room. I am going to be setting up some very specific guidelines of what is going to be expected regarding boundaries, school, behaviors, not hoarding, etc. Thanks again, Christy [/QUOTE]
