A.H.
I am not sure of the place; but I know there is an outstanding location in Lansing. My mother suffered this to the highest degree - to the point that it destroyed the family and were it basically messed up with my life (as the child) because I never knew what to expect or what was happening.
I do know this: it is hereditary. I know that I am on the 'moody' side at times (of course, not the the degree she is/ was!) and so is my baby brother at 20.)
She did get the help she needed and we were able to talk again. Certain drugs affect the body differently and the patient does need to be in a program if they are very bad...
I am not sure how bad off your son is; so I do feel for you. With summer coming; it may not be a bad time but know that if you do place him in hospital care he can sign himself out anytime as he is of age. That was our drawback with my mom until she was court-ordered to get treatment.
This is not something to take lightly and this is a disease that exists... as some do not believe in it.
I hope only for the best for you and your family; as well as your son!
