Great news on the therapist, though! I agree with you that mindfulness is probably a good choice right now. I've done a lot of EMDR and a lot of mindfulness. I know that EMDR has become popular, but I was never *that* impressed with it. One problem that I have with it is that moving my eyes back and forth makes me sleepy. I'm constantly fighting sleepiness from meds already. Don't need more things that cause sleepiness.

Mindfulness gives me the feeling of being connected to my spiritual self and I can practice mindfulness anywhere at any time.

It seems to me that applying for SSI while your son is having a psychotic episode is a good idea. It's easy to start the ball rolling. From what I know about SSI it sounds like your son would certainly be eligible for it.
Good post. I agree with you about mindfulness
