Norseman82 Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Catherine, Was it a window in your residence that she broke? If so, can you file charges yourself for destruction of property? The reason I bring this up is that so there is a record so if she causes trouble again, it will not get "swept under the rug", because I assure you, if it is not "nipped in the bud" now, it will only get worse - if not with your son, then with someone else, and eventually with any children she may have.

Credo in Deum Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 To St. Monica, Patroness of Mothers Blessed Monica, mother of St. Augustine, we give thanks to our Father in heaven Who looked with mercy upon your tears over your wayward son. His conversion and heroic sanctification were the fruit of your prayers. Dear St. Monica, we now ask you to pray with us for all those sons and daughters that have wandered away from God, and to add your prayers to those of all mothers who are worried over their children. Pray also for us that, following your example, we may, in the company of our children, one day enjoy the eternal vision of our Father in heaven. Amen.

CatherineM Posted May 8, 2014 Author Share Posted May 8, 2014 Wanted to let everyone know that things have gone back to normal here. Well, as normal as things ever are here. When dealing with individuals with mental illnesses, the most important tool is the ability to separate the person from the illness. As an example, when my husband is under stress or over-tired, he has breakthrough symptoms. When he starts thinking the TV is talking to him, I just tell him that means it's time to turn it off and go to bed. I don't get upset at him, I get upset at the illness. When a bipolar is off their meds, they can just get irrationally insane in a way that is indescribable unless you've experienced it. On meds, they are a completely different person. The best description is like something out of the Exorcist without the green vomit. Many times they don't even remember how they acted like an alcoholic blackout.
