@outlander @Gazza75 @Meowmy @Shaz51 @Molliex @Eden1919 @Former-Member  and all an opportunity came up tonight for me to suss out whether my son2 would be interested.in shared housing with mates and it was a definite no. I explained that there will come a time when I would be to old or sick to look after him and that we would find the perfect house for him. 

He listened nervously and had to be consoled that it would happen a long time away in the future. So all in all I cannot see that he will be moving any time soon. Which leaves me in a dilema of all these people around me saying he should move out because he is a danger to me..... pea

hi @greenpea that is really tough and im sure you would be having so many thoughts and emotions coming up now.
Is there a chance he would accept a night a week then increase to 2 a week and so on as a way to see how he goes and adjusts?

I really cant imagine how difficult this would be for you. sending my love

[Meowmy]

@greenpea know you love him so much. Always want to give him love and happiness. And he is very attached to you. Is he better and can control his violent voice on new meds? May be take some time to make decision. It is important for him as well to gradually gain some independence .Know it's hard for you. But probably the best for everyone.

It's such a tough situation @greenpea. Unfortunately it's not just about what he wants, it's also about your health and safety and what's best for him. Sending love💕💕💕🌻🌻🌻

@outlander @Meowmy @Molliex  Thank you all for getting back to me so quick. Yes maybe small visits in the future would be a good way to test the waters. He is an angel tonight it is always like nothing has ever happened. Definitely will watch to see if new meds will help. Taking him to another specialist on Friday as his pdoc is away (his pdoc has arranged this). They will be keeping a close eye on things while pdoc is away.

@greenpea 💜💜💜❤️❤️🌼🌼🌼🌼☕

Hope you can get some rest and not worry to much.  Its such a tough situation.  What does your ex suggest if you don't mind me asking. You do not need to answer that if it's distressing, just think he'd have a good handle on all of it.

I think everyones suggestions are thoughtful and worth thinking about when you can.

Wish pea could take a holiday,. Clear. Mind and have a chance to think without juggling life and pressures.

I really do hope something works out well @greenpea a good option for you all would be ideal even if its something very small to start with.
