Been fighting for some real help for 2 weeks now. It's been REALLY ROUGH!

I get so angry inside thinking about how cold people can be and how they just seem to not listen.

Anyway... a doc will call on Tuesday and give our son an app to evaluate him and then hopefully see that he needs to be admitted to hospital for some time to look over the meds and help him out concerning his suicidal behavior. Every day has been a struggle... especially the days I've been home alone with both kids. I've had to run around like crazy keeping my son safe. He found the knives we had hidden... so I took Altheia's advice and bought a toolbox with a lock, to put the knives and pair of scissors in.

I'm to tired of all this to even tell you about all the phone calls I've made to I don't know how many people. At least I got an apology from the head of one of the units at the hospital... She thought this was sorted out by now.

The child psychiatric care, they only take care of kids with ADHD and the other unit at the hospital is taking care of Aspergers. That's one of the stupid answers I've received when asking for help with my son being suicidal. I told the person in question that my son cannot be torn into two and that this isn't really about the diagnoses... but about a child who doesn't want to live anymore and that this cannot wait.

Well, well... Sweden and it's healthcare - at least in this region - is just crap.

We've just been to the ER this afternoon and evening because our son suffered from a severe headache. He was totally out of it... couldn't eat... cried... couldn't sit up... fell asleep (even at the ER). He was too exhausted to even get violent or bad in his mouth. Several times he nearly threw up. We saw two doctors and eventually we got a med to our son. We went to the observation unit to wait and see if it was going to work. After 45 minutes the headache began to go away. So this headache was probably a mixture of tension out of all the internal stress lately and a horrible migraine.
My poor son... no real rest... not ever...
