hi everyone
its been a while since i posted here so thought id come in and say hi and tell whats been going on here.
shaun has been on bi-polar meds for the last 2 weeks but still drinking booze (he had uped his 4 bottles to 8-10 bottles) and on weed
needless to say no body was copeing
we are staying with his mum at the moment which made the situation worse.
he didnt take his bi-polar medication 2 days ago and last ngiht.
tonight as im writeing this he is sitting in the police cells he lost it abused the s*** out of his mum some of which i must say she did deserve as shes been snapping and treating him like crap for days. she called the police and hes not aloud back here i dont know what will happen tommorow at court or to us.
Alright..CR.....Things aint goin to good eh!bit of an under statement...the drinking and his meds are a very dangerous combo......can you tell us whats he taken...i was on a drug called Zyprexa a few yrs ago and it mixed with booze would turn ya into a ragdoll...and you would get mad goofs..just passing out really...so tell him to watch out...coz as i said mixed with booze yer just blotto big time.See CR....he has just reverted from one drug to another...o.k its not smack ...but enough bottles ,spliffs,and meds can f*** you up just as much as gear but in a differant way..
Hope things get better for ya CR.....Davey.
Hiya, it might be a good thing that he's been picked up for his violent behaviour. I have never called the fuzz on my boyfriend, although I think I should have on many occassion. I guess I felt too ashamed/embarressed/scared. It was like our secret, and I protected him from the consequences of his actions, although I know that is daft, and goes against my supposed philosophy on life. I was called into the social today, and had to described in detail the violence, in order to get out of the whole child maintanence thing. I didn't have any police reports to back up my side of things, although my midwife saw the evidence of his abuse, so I did have some medical evidence.

He should have to face up to what he does. You know the old adage "no excuse for abuse". Don't blame it on the meds. I've been on anti-psych drugs for years. Zyprexa (olanzapine) for several years, then risperidone, and now Seroquel. I also take zispin for depression. When I was on subutex, I'll admit, my prescribed drugs got me more loaded than smack. I'd take my all my prescribed drugs around the same time in the morning, smoke a spliff and I'd be out, gouching like I'd just whacked up half a gram. I'd get a rush, no kidding. But it chilled me out, didn't make me violent or anything. And I gotta say, during those tough months when I was still grieving for heroin, it helped to have something that just took me away for a bit. As time wore on I developed a bit of a tolerance for them, and now they don't knock me out like they used to, and I don't want to be smashed everyday like I used to. Be warned though, when I was pregnant, a locum gp told me to stop all my meds, which I did. It was nearly as bad as quitting smack. I didn't sleep for 2 months, and eventually I saw my obs, and she told me to get back on them quick smart, coz I was turning into a complete basket case.

Try not to worry too much. He'll probably be out in the morning, and it might have given him the kick up the arse he needs.

Take care

love
