Thank you. She really doesn’t understand SZ. I find many people have either a fear or a kind of morbid fasination with it -both are annoying. I am very happy to be able to come in here and read an dshare just because I don’t have to explain. everyone just gets it.
May 5th…okay…mine was May 30th. I am thinking of you and thank you for your reply. Sitting back and waiting may be best now. As you do. Im going to get him a phone card as they are not allowed personal phones and there is a public booth but I cant phone it. I dont know if he will phone me though. He doesnt like going in the lounge with the others yet. Where the phone is. He did ask for a magazine he likes (mens fashion) which i will take next time. He is in solitary tonight and sedated as he got superagitated after I left today. Yep, I am trying to take one day at a time. Thank you.
Good to see you posting @pattywagon1. I’m sorry you son is inpatient. 
It’s hard trying to decide what is best when it comes to visiting. Seeing me used to set my son into asking about me getting him out. Not lying to him yet not being able to give him the answers that he wanted only aggravated him. I started cutting these visits short by telling him that I had things to do so that he didn’t think it was him. Gotta love paranoia…
I can only say beautiful 
It really does make it all worth it.
strong text****strong textI know for me visiting hours were the highlight of my day. My advice to you is to discuss this with your son and the two of you can come up with a plan that works for both of you.
