it’s unfortunately official.
2009 March 31
Evan had an hallucination last night.
Apparently he was seeing fish tails underneath his blanket and it scared the beejeezus out of him.
Not sure what to say about it, except that I am numb and exhausted. Dealing with a psychotic breakdown at 3AM does not make for a good night’s sleep, especially after having dealt with one only a few hours before.

I’m sorry. How exhausting. I hope this isn’t unwanted or trite, but are you part of any kind of support group? I ask because there is a LOT of mental illness in my family, including the hallucinating kind, and I’m very familiar with how hard it is. I know that having someone who understands to talk to can be the difference between despair or not at times. My girlfriend whose small son is severely bipolar joined an online group whose vibe she liked, and got a lot of comfort out of it. I hope you all have a peaceful night.
Jeez, that is scary. I am scared for both of you.
I am sending you the strength to find a way to help this kid. And, the strength to take care of yourself.
XOXOXO
Aw, sweetie, I don’t even know what to say. Just remember that you and E are always in my prayers.
oh my, hang in there and I hope that you can get some sleep today.
