I'm very proud of Adam because he stuck with his ADs longer than I did. He had to come off them because throwing up bile for days on end isn't much fun and they made him see things. He knows the things he sees are not real but they scare him. He's now come off the tablets but only for a couple days so the effects are still going on. Last night I was holding him while he was crying like a baby at the things that were coming out of the walls and the ceiling at him. He couldn't describe them well but said it was like the time his drink was spiked with LSD.
Lots of knowledgable people on here...does anyone know if sertraline could cause acid flashbacks? I know that's a hell of a long shot and it's probably just the sertraline itself and his stress but still...it was a very upsetting experience for both of us. He was so helpless. So was I.
He's going back to Chester today or tomorrow. He's going to give me his house keys. I've offered to take a load of stuff up to him there next weekend - clothes, TV, etc. So then he won't feel so...he'll belong there more and his presence won't be here so much. Going to look at places advertised to let in the paper with him now. I'm supporting him emotionally but still managing to encourage him in moving out and being independant and reminding him how he'll feel better in himself when he has a place which is just his. I think this is a step forward but I've thought that before so...we'll see.
