Something’s not right

Advice please

Advice please

Hi everyone all those who know me know that I don't talk much but this time may be different .... anyway I will try and keep it short and sweet. It is about my son (when is it not about my son)I think he has deteriorated over the past few months. He is talking to his entities through the computer screen. His language is more aggressive (for example he was talking about one of his entities wanting to hurt me).

My mental health nurse wants me to go and have him reassessed .... I do not want him hospitalised again. I will not sign him, I promised him that last time he went. I don't know what to do. I feel exhausted, I worry about the impact this is having on my daughter. It is like walking on eggshells.

If he harms me or my daughter it will not be him but his delusions but he will still pay the price..... to be honest I am scared witless of where this is all going.

Any advice greatly appreciated. greenpea

Re: Advice please

Hey little pea @Bunniekins, as much as you hate hurting your son and you made a promise to him, I think he really needs reassessment. I myself am going in for reassessment at the end of the week because my entities have retruned and are violent too. I made this choice myself rather than hurting those I love. My guess is one of my meds needs tweaking.

thinking of you gentle pea!

Will do GP @Bunniekins 🙂

I'm going public this time so hopefully they can do this stay in minimum amount of time possible (few days).

Re: Advice please

@Bunniekins Hi I am sorry you are going through such a hard time. Obviously safety needs to come first especially with another child in the house. Is there an option for perhaps a private hospital or some kind of day program where it is not as horrible as the public system. I can understand wanting to keep your promise. Maybe talk to your GP or psych about different options that aren’t hospital but are still more support than home. Sorry if I am not helpful.
