The answer should be yes. Not "how can I get my loved one help?"

We met with David’s psych team today.

We are doing everything right.  They are surprised that it has taken us this long to seek placement for him.

We talked at length about the issue with David spitting up his meds, and were told that it is all about David wanting control.  Has nothing to do with him not liking the taste of his meds.

As much as I like this psychiatrist, this isn’t anything that we didn’t already know.

So we are going to keep on doing what we have been doing until a bed opens up at the residential facility.  He can be there for as many as 7 years.

Another topic was our discussion of David’s behavior and its affect on my health.  Yeah, not a good conversation to have.
