LSG417's Journal, 20 April 2018

This day certainly hasn't ended the way it began. We were just arriving in Roanoke when we got a call from the SRO at my son's school. Seems he was mouthing off again and making threats (he is claiming that he's misunderstood). He was taken into custody and taken to our local hospital for psych evaluation. We turned right around and headed straight back home. I think I'm still in shock about the entire situation. He seems convinced that everyone is against him and just wants to get him in trouble. His behavior has been escalating, so we have to take this seriously. He will be evaluated by a pediatric psychiatrist/psychologist in the morning and it will be determined if he needs to be placed in a facility or if we can bring him home. Part of me is angry at him, for saying things he knows he shouldn't, but my heart is breaking into a million pieces right now. I couldn't stay with him tonight, but it was so hard to walk out of that room. He was being beligerant at one point, which seriously worries me. I feel like a walking train wreck right now. Very few people know about this, but I feel like this is a safe place to air my feelings. I thought I knew what heartbreak was when my first husband died. But looking into your almost grown son's eyes, yet still seeing your baby boy, and knowing you are incapable of fixing this, was more than I could bear. Please keep us in your prayers.

Prayers said. I'm sorry you have to go though this. I wish there was something I could say/do to magically make things better but since I can't I will keep you in my prayers.

I've been there. Know that you are doing the right thing by having him evaluated. Some things are out of your control. You are controlling the things you can to help him.

Hello - your ordeal is difficult. Before he is labelled find out if he has been smoking a lot of weed that you may not know about. Often in the developing brain it plays with the dopamine and will cause delusional thinking. If so he has to stop immediately or it will be an on going and escalating journey. He needs more than one day for an evaluation, as if this is the case he needs to come down off of the induced dopamine. Some teenagers have very large frontal lobes, and also are very smart, and are badly affected by this "home grown medicine". Just a bit of insight, been there know the results, and I understand your deep fear. Do what you do best, love him. Prayers for you dear lady. Donna

May I suggest breathing in and remembering that sometimes there is nothing we can do or could have done differently. I feel for you. Nothing is more difficult than having family situations spiral out of control. I pray that you will find the answers. I also hope you find help--that may sound silly, but the right connections makes all the difference.

Children— our greatest joy and our greatest heartache at times. A friend had a similar child a number of years ago. This young lady said something very profound that I have never forgotten.—-“mom, you cannot fix me”. A special prayer for your family tonight.

Know that at the moment he is safe and exactly where he needs to be. He hs suffered a great loss at a young age and it sometimes can linger. Take deep breaths. You are his advocate and will need to make some tough decisions thst he may not like, but remember what you want the outcome to be. Since this is a diet site... it is like dieting! You sacrifice now to see the results later! You are so very resilient. Keep your head uo and your eyes on the goal of helpinf him get through these rough times. Big hugs mama.
