@DHX-you answered a question I didn't think to ask yet...consistency. Thanks. I only know my meds and well, consistency?

Going to see Mom now. Hoping I can convince her to go to my T tomorrow. I'm so angry that they did not do a psych consult in the hospital. They sent her home with anti-anxiety meds, but no recommendation of follow up beyond primary doc. Just hoping she scared herself enough to know it's time to get some help.

Thanks again.
Oh another thing the doctor told us is that he needs to take "mini breaks" on the meds. He's on Adderal XR. Anyway, like to not take them on days when he doesn't need to concentrate. Unlike BP meds, they don't need to build up to work in your system. I say there is 0 consistancy for him on them. But I also question if he's also bipolar so I don't know if that's why.

Hopefully your mom does seek help once she is out. I know some people from the older generations don't really find value in treatment for mental health.
