[quote=Anonymous]A friend with manic depression called me recently from the mental ward of the hospital. He was raging about things in his life as newly destitute, dysfunctional extended family, etc...and the doc involuntarily placing him in the hospital because he "jokingly" suggested burning down a relative's house. He said he doesn't need therapy or meds because he can self manage. He also has reached out for, and I'm trying to help with, food assistance. It's sad and scary. Trying to support him but I'm 8 months pregnant, bedridden, and have a toddler. He's lonely and feels isolated. I talk to him occasionally by phone and online. But I'm uncomfortable allowing him to visit because he just really seems unstable right now. For those with this condition, how can I best help him? [/quote]
