General He's Wearing His Dog Tags Again?

Please know that we ALL care about you. There have been other threads on this concept of how honest but frank feedback should or should not be received.

I do know you have awareness of this. Please continue to receive these messages because. however hard, you never know when someone will say that one thing that will help so much. Maybe a different way to look at or accept something.

That has been my experience anyway.

I also hope and trust that members will continue their support.

Good luck today! We are thinking of you.

CCurry -

I know you are in a fragile state right now - I know that your stress is beyond the maxed out point - I know (personally) how frightening all of this is. I am hoping and praying that everything works out today and that David is able to get help. I'm glad to hear that you are seeking out help as well - this can be a very difficult situation to be in - especially when you are the carer. (I still will never forget how absolutely terrified I was when my daughter was hospitalized and the day that led up to that.....)

Remember - that you are stressed and fragile right now. I don't think anyone meant to hurt your feelings last night - I'm sure it wasn't meant that way. I'm sorry that it felt that way to you.

Please let us know how it goes today.

Carmela,

The thing with posts that you feel are to harsh, is that, when they bother you that much, there usually is some truth to it, and it hurts to hear the truth....We, are all on the outside looking in, we have no emotional ties, or constraints to base our opinions on......

You on the other hand are emotionally involved, and, in love with him, and we are not always able to see the truth. We tend to ignore, or explain away his behavior....

There is also this....Take what you need from a post/thread, and leave the rest behaind. Not everything that you read, you will agree with, or like. It's just the nature of dealing with this kind of a community....

I hope that David has decided to get the help that he needs.....

I just wanted to let you know I am thinking of you and hoping that the situation is settling down and that you get the help you both need....

I wish I had more advice but being in your situation must be very hard on you and knowing what to do and making such life altering decisions for someone else is sure to be taking its toll on you..please try and take good care of yourself too and know that we are just worried and want what is best for both of you while keeping you all safe and his symptoms under control.:Hug_emoticon:

A rough day yesterday for sure. I know you are trying hard. I know it hurts as you struggle with your situation and with what to do.

I, also, continue to hold you and your entire family in my thoughts and prayers.

Another day, but another rough day! Keep trying!

Or as in Finding Nemo... "just keep swimming, just keep swimming, just keep swimming"

Hi,

My silence does not mean that we did not go to the ER dept and spent 5 hours there.

One baby step at a time progress will be made and not soon enough for me.

Carmela,

I hope things are pointed in the right direction right now, and that David will get the help that he needs. I hope that your trip to the ER was of benefit to you both, and they he was offered options/services that would help him on his way.....

Hi Carmela. I am sorry my thoughts came across as an attack. I was just sharing what life has taught me.

Of course I want things to get better for both of you.

 

[pandora]

You were in my thoughts and I was just hoping that things are going better and you were able to get the assistance you needed sooner rather than later...

Hello

As anyone one thought that thiss poor guy might be not telling whole truths. Not to decitefull but because he is terrifed of his symptoms and the thought of losing control by been doped up on meds down the ER. Plus the overwhelming pressure he might loose it. I think he needs to be reassured that he can get through thisand that he isn't crazy. And finding help that does not indeed result in been drugged out of it.


Really I have been through this. I had a psychotic breakdown following a serious assault where I was drugged, raped and tortured. Really I lost it and was delusional for a time and hallucinated e.t.c. I got through it alone. And really it is a hell like no other. Please offer him my sympathy. Let him know that it is possible to get through. Please reassure him of this. My heart goes out to him. I hope he finds peace soon.
