My son is out of control (age 42) and can't get the meds he needs due to financial reasons. Now has beaten up his son (age 24) who lives across the street.
His wife is afraid as this is getting to be normal behavior for him and she is trying to hold it together but we feel he needs immediate help.
We live in Indiana and don't know the guidelines
Thank you

No--my grandson went to the ER but did not want to press charges. Everyone is afraid of him but me and his father. However I do not know if he would hurt me or not---saying no but who knows?
Stranger things have happened---found out his doctor is on vacation until the 26th and we can have him change the meds BUT his wife is afraid because he is in a nasty mood today also
Thank you
