Hi Ellie, yes, thanks, I know i have to get the guns out. I'm going to have his dad get them, I have a call in on their answering machine. I have to find the medication though, that almost worries me more, although I know guys are more likely to use guns, women more likely to use meds. I just can't figure out where that went to, I never gave it much thought when I cleaned the cabinet, but now I worry about that because I can't figure out where it could be, and it's harder to find than a gun.
I have a million lists of depression sypmtoms, even the "HANDS" depression screen. I will take it home with me tonight and go over it with him. I am thinking about calling our family physician to clue her in. she put him on AD several years ago, about 6 months before the damned A started in fact, and had re-upped his prescription to keep him on them for another 6 months, then he met the wonderful monster and decided he didnt need them and threw them out. And started refusing to go to the doctor. do you think there would be benefit in giving her a heads up???????? I am also thinking I may call one of the male former co-workers, the one he was weeping about being such a wise and holy man that he misses so much. The guy is also a therapist, a very good one, and I wonder if H might be more open to at least starting out to talk with him.
Fortunately he has LOTS of sick leave, I'm guessing 800 hours, which is what, 20 weeks? almost 6 months?
How dangerous are those damn meds????? Ambian, 5 mg, I think, probably 20 tabs, plus I dont recall what the Painkiller was...oh, I think it was Percodan? no, that's not it, it's something that is hot on the black market, but I cant think of the name now. probably 10/12 tabs...It is just so odd that it isnt in the med cabinet. I'm sure I didnt throw it out. That really really is worrying me, that maybe he's got it stockpiled somewhere.
This stuff is so exhausting.
Pray for us, guys. I will do my best to do my part, but I need your prayers.
