[quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry, OP, first and foremost. I do agree that medications need to be part of the equation ASAP. Unfortunately one of the quickest ways to get someone an appointment is right after they’re discharged from inpatient. They have appointments they hold just for these crises and you won’t get one without the prior admission. I’ve also had to call the police a few times, and my DS was never handcuffed and taken anywhere, but it did diffuse the immediate situation and it sets a precedent. Diagnoses aside, physical assault is never, ever to be tolerated. If you can come up with a better consequence, that’s great. My DS is doing better most of the time. There are still some outbursts, but they are more cries for help. He’s 16 now, turning 17 soon. I hope you and your family all get help, this is no way for any of you to have to live. [/quote]
