However my son’s classes are at night So I don’t know what we’ll do. My son has huge open wounds because of his picking. There each the size of a cigarette burn and it’s all over his face, his arms, his legs, his back just everywhere and he’s bleeding all over the place. I’m at a loss of how to help him. I recently went up to 200mg of lamictal. Hopefully it’ll help me. I do recognize my family needs me even if it’s just financially. I’m in a dark place with no help out. I may end up IP and I don’t really care if I do.


Sorry your going through all this

Does your son need IP ? All those open wounds need to be addressed and then he can get some help that will hopefully stop that to this degree.

Is your husband taking his meds ?

Are you just taking Lamictal? Still on Zyprexa ?

Maybe a IP stay would really help you, I know you hate it but you or your husband need to get healthy to care for Miguel as he sounds like he is a mess.

Anorexia? Hell im knocking on its door so all I can say is do the best you can.
