| Posted by Dana on September 28, 2003 at 17:14:03: I had posted earlier and maybe I didn't make my message clear, or maybe that's not what this board is for. I'm just looking for info. mainly. I know my husband was an alcoholic and still struggle with it, I know he manufactured methamphetamine before we met and they say that my have caused drug induced psychosis, I know they (his docs) also say he may be schizophrenic but they cannot tell because of the prolonged drug use. I need to know, now what? He's sitting in a federal medical center (prison) getting a mental health evaluation for a possession of a firearm after prior felony conviction charge that I got him picked up on when I called the police to take him to the crisis center to get him back on his meds. I feel like when we went for help, they went after him for the gun charge. Our county had just received a new grant for prosecuting crimes committed with a firearm. My husband obviously gets to be the first. Even though he was not actually committing a crime, I called for transport only and told them where the gun was. He was totaly delusional and had been having severe auditory and visual hallucinations when this was happening. Does anyone have any advice, stories, places to get help or treatment? Anything? Dana |
