Hello, Angelina. An involuntary commitment may be one recourse. These organizations may be able to help you:

In my state, the State's Attorney handles civil commitment matters. Look in the county government section of the phone book for the number.

Unfortunately, your son is mentally ill and a danger to himself or others. He needs help, even if he does not want it.

Good luck.
Thanks for this!
