When I say "move" I mean put our valuables in storage. Then "visit" family all over the place until my mind catches up and goes into repair phase (a short time between depression & mania to fix the damage and prepare for the next phase).

I wouldn't be worried about staying w. family but it's not around the time we'd normally "visit". I'm also still teary, destructive, prone to fits and anti-social currently.`Both would be huge red flags and my son doesn't need to see me like this.

We would keep our address until we had a permanent one. So my son's schooling, and medical wouldn't be disturbed. Keeping the same address would also let us keep our team of doctors until we found a new team.

IOP isn't necessarily bad. We need to do something but my husband the one currently taking care of our son, our house, and our dog. We can't sending Miguel to stay with family because the school year has started. My husband will make breakfast and pack a lunch for him until I get better. My husband is starting to keep the bedroom door open so I'm "part of the family" and has already "baby-proofed" our master bedroom. He still worries about me. I'm hoping IOP will give him time to concentrate on himself and maybe force me to step up.

I really don't have the energy to talk to a lawyer or fight an eviction. Breathing is enough right now.
