Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

Well hello to anyone who's discovered this new thread .... and welcome!!!

For some time I've noticed things are a bit quiet on a Saturday, especially in the evening. So this will be a social gathering for all forumites and hopefully a place to relax and meet friends. It's also a place where you can talk about whatever's going on for you at the moment, safely, and find support.

If you want to bring something to eat or drink that would be welcome, whatever makes you happy.

Actually that may be a good place to start - jump in anywhere and let us know one thing that makes you happy - currently or over time.

Really looking forward to finding a posse to hang with on a Saturday.

L E T ' S P A R T Y !!!

@Adge here's one someone sent me couple years ago lol ..

As the year comes to an end, I urge you to take care of yourself and avoid accidents because spare parts for old models like you are no longer in stock.

Forward to other old models you care about.

Hey @Libra & thank you so much @eth for tagging me in this! That sounds really tough, not knowing what's going on. How'd it go with his treating team? Were they able to shed any light on what's happening? As far as what to say, my first instinct would be to be honest about what's happening- you could also ask if there's a social worker you could speak to as they might be able to help navigate what's happening, tell you about options available to support both you and your son and keep you updated about what's happening. In my experience, they will often attend the meetings at hospital so they're kept in the loop about what's happening. I'm also going to tag @Former-Member in case she's got any insights to share 😊

Schizophrenia

Hi @eth@tideisturning@shaz51

Thanks for helping👍❤.

My son is still in hospital, and will be in for a few weeks yet, he is very unwell. His psychiatrist said he has severe schizophrenia. They are going to change his medication, so it will be 18 weeks to get up to the desired dose!

The hospital team has been very helpful this time around and his psychiatrist has filled me in on everything and calls me whenever something changes or he needs me to come in to sign something. I feel he is in good hands this time.🤞

I have visited with my son a few times, but he is still very volatile and telling me it's my job to fix everything..

The Dr also mentioned about a metal health rehab that he can go to, while he is getting used to the medication, and learn life skills etc. That sounds wonderful to me! If only my son will agree to it...

Thanks again, for your support. I know he is in a safe place for now.

Cheers Gail xoxo
