residential treatment

[Reilly]

Thanks for your input.
I had a lovely crisis worker come and speak with us. She explained that sadly there were no beds available in any of the inpatient facilities. Then from one Social Worker to another, she admitted that the kids play video games and watch TV in these places and rarely get the therapy they desperately require. She worked to get us outpatient counseling (we went yesterday for the intake) and an intensive home based therapy program that comes three to four times per week. She felt this would be a great benefit to my son and our family.
He is not doing well currently. He is very depressed and angry. This part of him only wants to go "inside to rest" but the others are blocking him from doing so. Perhaps they are afraid of him or simply want him to cope with his issues. I am not sure.
It is a daily struggle as you all know. He had been doing fantastic for a while. Then all of a sudden it was this downhill spiral. I hope he will be helped and that we can live a calm productive life.
Thanks for your support!
