As I write this I am on the phone with him, him being my husband.......This is a daily thing....it keeps him calm and until he goes for his next appointment this time with a psychiatrist, it keeps us feeling safe..... Maybe medication will help to stabilize his emotions and control his mood swings ??? it seems to settle his mind to know that I am in the house and no one is here....does anyone understand what I mean when I say "keeping the peace". I can sleep at night when the call ends peacefully........sad but true......
