my son was diagnosed a few years ago. He owns his own home but for stability lives with my Husband ,myself and two siblings. He is on meds but I'm never sure if he is taking them properly. Our understanding was keep the house cleaned up (dishes and vacuum)for contributing to the home. He recently qualified for SSI so he has some income, he also rents out his house to meet the mortgage. It was good for a while. I bring up the JOB subject only to be met with nothing. He was going to go back to college but he needs a reference letter from his psych and PO. That never happen.He has tried to commit suicide in the past so now feel like an emotional hostage. I'm afraid to push to hard . I don't want to send him over the edge. Now the cleaning has gone by the way side and the dishes are done occasionally. I'm at my witts end. He sleeps lhalf the day and up late at night. My husband and I work as does his sibling and the other is still in school!!!! What do I do!
