Looking after ourselves

Re: Daily Check In Space

@Shaz51  son2 is just so mixed up in his head. I dont know where all of this is leading.  He is so sick in his mind....

Re: Daily Check In Space

that sounds rather difficult @greenpea i hope S2 and yourself can get some more answers, help and the support you both deserve xox

Re: Daily Check In Space

@outlander  yes his room is full of drawings of all sorts of guns ...his autism makes it really hard plus his schizophrenia ... he can get quite violent at times ..... I dont know where this is headed but fear it will be messy

Re: Daily Check In Space

@greenpea 💔

All the best tomorrow sweetheart

Re: Daily Check In Space

@Anastasia  thank you Anastasia I hope they listen and don't write him off in the too hard basket x

Re: Daily Check In Space

i hope it wont be messy @greenpea they need to see it for what it is and not dismiss your concerns. Im seeing so many people fall through the cracks because they dismiss it as 'normal' for that medical condition.
Take some of the drawings if you have to, showing them physical evidence and not leaving it to the imagination can be helpful sometimes too

Re: Daily Check In Space

@outlander  funny you have said bring his drawings because I have talked him into bringing a book of his full of his gun drawings and the entities which he believes he is one of.  He doesnt believe his family are human he believes we are dragon like creatures .....

Re: Daily Check In Space

I hope so too darling pea.

You and he deserve that @greenpea ❤️

Re: Daily Check In Space

these are the things they need to know and see @greenpea they need to see it through his eyes and not through what they think he should be seeing.
His perceptions are off but they are his perceptions to own so they need to work with him in what he needs. I cant really imagine what he would be thinking or feeling, if i seen dragons and these entities id imagine not knowing who to trust or where to turn to for help in his 'fantasy' type world his brain perceives to be living in

Re: Daily Check In Space

All the best for tomorrow @greenpea ❤
