I would like to thank you. I being able to talk like this is very helpful. My wife is very helpful and she knows of my past , I told here everything that had happened in the past.. But now she is living through what I'm going through right now... She has a lot to deal with besides me and my problems we have an 8 yr. old my stepson who has bipolar disorder from his father, he is starting to get physical to a lot of people in the family, the meds. he is on would drive anybody nuts and at his age it is even worst because he dosn't really understand his problem, and it has gotten to the point were even his psyc. has said that maybe he be put in a home for awhile but I don't won't that and nor my wife.

Mac I am sorry that you are having to deal with such a difficult situation. Sometimes the meds take a while to work and finding the right combination also can take a while. It is a hard decision to make when physical issues come into play. I know you will make the best decision for your family. Take care.

I can sympathise with the terrifying suggestion of child being put into care for his/her own good, so to speak. You may not have read my posts, but my 6yo is in care, only this time for the safety of my 22th old. My 6yo was throwing chairs, coffee tables, phones- anything near her at not just me but no2 also. The last straw was when she threw her moneybox out her window- without opening the window 1st- coz I was holding the bedroom door shut just to keep some space between her and no2 while she was in this rage. It is a truely hard thing to even contemplate, but sometimes it is the best for everyone, even if it is just a 'breather' for a week or 2. The separation is causing me more probs than ever- my PTSD is caused by grief/loss esp around no1- but she is a lot calmer and doing a lot better with this 'breather'. I wish you all the best, and hopefully it won't come to this for you...
