[quote=Anonymous]One of my DCs is extremely violent and mentally ill. Although his diagnosis was different than your son’s, I completely understand the feelings of fear, guilt, desire to protect that you are experiencing. You are a good mom. But your protective instincts are maladaptive here because we aren’t prepared for these situations. Tell his care team. Show the videos. They need all the information you can give them to make the best treatment plans. You are stressed and overwhelmed. Write or make notes in your phone so you remember to ask/tell the providers what you need to, and write down whatever plans they don’t give you in writing. You absolutely need to know what to do when your son is being violent. Stress level doesn’t just affect you when it’s happening it affects your memory and communication. It would be impossible to retain everything the care team tells you, don’t try! I hope DH is on board with you and you have other support. [/quote]
