Re: my son is terrifying me tonight

@Owlunar@Sophia1@Zoe7 lovely people that you are being there for the pea greatly appreciated. My son came home and yes his bad voices were in charge he was angry, scared and sad and embarrassed (which is interesting as when I have been psychotic I have never been embarrassed but he was). I feel exhausted ... for him after reassurance from me is like nothing has happened ...

I have a plan it is rough but I will get out of the house and stay out in the car. Come back in the morning. I wont call the police unless it gets really bad as I just dont trust them ... the ambos maybe but they will call the police if he gets angry....

BTW I can hear his happy chirpy voice from his room talking to himself like nothing that ever happened....

Re: my son is terrifying me tonight

I am pleased you have a plan if things escalate again - ity is not an ideal scenario but better to be in your car safe than at home and not @Bunniekins. Maybe pack a bag with some essentials that you can leave in your car if the time does come that you need to be there for safety - a blanket or coat (or both), some water and a couple of snacks - just a few things to help get you through the night.

Let's hope tonight is a less worrying night for you little pea - it sounds like your son is in a better mood right now and Toby and I have our paws and fingers crossed that it stays that way for you

Hi @Bunniekins

I really hope you have a peaceful night with your son tonight - it is a hard time for both of you

I understand you don't trust the police - for me it's different - the The Thin Blue Line in my family is so wide no one can find their way out - it started early in the last century and new generations are turning up more policemen - so I guess I do trust them

But they do need to control people at times and that can be very hard - and having seen some of this in my life I understand more than most I think

So I get it about your lack of trust - I do - but remember they will help at the worst of times and the best of times - they are their for help and this can sometimes be seen as an active form of protection - for you too

I am really hoping things stay quiet at your place tonight but still prepare a safe place in your car - whew - and take your phone to keep in touch

@Bunniekins
I've been better. Home now from hospital. Vertigo and stomach pain as well as high blood pressure. It was 200/110. That's why the paramedics took me to hospital.
Things will improve with time and I need to not let myself get so stressed or anxious when I'm not physically well. Easier said than done though.
Glad to hear both your children are better. Do you are a free woman !! Lol enjoy 😊
Any plans for the weekend?
