Parents of Bipolar Children Support Group

Well I got the call to pick my daughter up at camp ths weekend . Its amazing how quickly things can go downhill!!!! I have absolutly no childcare arranged for her ths week and im despertly trying not to loose my new job (as has happend because of her many times). She has burned most of her bridges so its really hard to find anybody (or anyplace) that will watch her...i cant even look at her right now...if i close my eyes tight cant i just pretend that she is still at camp and none of this is really happening????

Jenn im so sorry huge hugs

Is their any day out patient programs??

I was hoping after she got back in all was going to work out sorry

must be something in the air i guess...thanks for the sentiments

jenn, hope your days get better. As mik4284 mentioned... it's been one of those weeks. (((((hugs)))

That stinks! I'm so sorry....what a mess.

Ive thought of you all day hope you figured something out.If you were close she could we could watch her until you figue something out cant be anyworse then the one I have here LOL Actualy I feel quilty mines still pretty sedated all meds so its not been too bad since she got out hospital this last time.Ive been driving back forth taking her to her friends so we get break from each other Im praying the new meds with old may help I know they helped manic rages bc shes too tired but shes had several bouts crying its sad but when crying I can help/handle when violent rage none can do anything

yes, somebody connected me with an agency called "special sitters" out here where i live. they will sit for kids w/special needs. my daughter doesnt understand why she has to have a "babysitter" when she is 13 but so far hasnt fought it thankfully...its certainly not a cheap service by any means (id love to figure out a way that she can pay me back for this!!!) but im glad that they were available on such short notice and my daughter also has been sleeping a lot since she got home so that helps...

Can you maybe get insurance or some type state help to pay it?
