I dont know what to do anymore
Sorry im new here and just need somewhere to vent to get ideas/help.
Firstly i have bipolar 2 and sruggle with depression which feels like most of my life. Recently my oldest son tried to commit suicide, he was found im time and was taken to a youth inpatient unit. He was discharged on a Monday afternoon and then overdosed on that Wednesday morning. Back in hospital, back to the inpatient unit. they want to dischage him on Thursday which would be just over two weeks since he went in (this second time)
I know he's hurting, and he needs help, but this has taken a huge toll on me to the point where im not okay, im not safe, and i dont know how im going to be able to look after him when hes back home. He will need 24/7 watch and i can barely walk a straight line and not cry. Help! What do i do??
I am single, have no friends, very little family so bascially no support. I dont know how to keep going
