So my husband isn't sleeping, hyper, irritable and hyper sexual. He won't take his meds or stop pacing. We don't see pdoc until July 8th and no longer see our t's. I'm waiting as long as possible to see if he can actually drive. How do I deal with this with out going manic myself.

Can you call the pdoc office and see if they will increase a med to help get him to the point he can drive and then get in for an appointment? It seems like there is no way July is going to work for him.

He won't take his normal meds let alone more. I'll call Monday maybe I can get him in with his old therapist.

Can you, your husband, and son have a family meeting to talk about what's going on, and brainstorm ways to deal with this situation? We do that in my family, and it helps us from being isolated with issues that come up. Take care of yourself.

He's drinking
 and blaring music @11:30 pm. He'll probably smoke tonight too. Grrr...I convinced him to make an appointment with former T. He took his meds!

(migs))) glad he took his meds! Phew! His lack of sleep would probably have started affecting yours too much too. Great that he's going to see his therapist. Hope this passes soon for the both of you.
