I would have to agree with Sofaraway...this may just be how he hits rock bottom...but if he is a danger to himself at all - or if there is any proof you can send the authorities - he could then get some help...it would be a 5150 involuntary commitment here in CA - so long as there is any evidence of him being a danger to himself or anyone else. He may be pushing you and testing you - and trying to manipulate you - and if you try to rescue him yourself that won't work - but it there are serious signs of despair they can't be ignored - and the professionals have to step in. I think you did the right thing by calling...I can't imagine how frustrating and frightening this must all be for you. You and your family are in my prayers.
I thikn you are off doing holiday things, right, with the kids? I hope you manage to enjoy this 2 days with your kids and that Dan is ok, you havent posted, so let us all know.... Thinking of you, Al xxx
Wow! I love the colorful messages! I am doing just fine...kids and I went to lunch with SIL and her kids yesterday, then karate, then supper, then we watched Rudolph and drank hot chocolate.
This morning we have made spritz cookies, the only kind I am good at, in little Christmas-tree shapes.
I am doing just fine, I know that I am doing all I can do....and my kids are going to be ok too.
Re. finances, I have one credit card in MY name only, and all the utilities, etc are set up in my name only since I was going to live here on my own. And his truck, tractor, and 2 trailer payments are all in his name only. So there isn't a whole lot to separate out other than the checking accounts....
Going to have a good day today no matter what. It is Christmas eve!
