Just want to bang my head on a wall.....
Lousy day and night yesterday with my Dad again, I ended up round at theirs sitting like a jailer getting him into bed after a quite frankly bizarre evening for my Mum, she called saying should couldn't do it anymore.
Got him into bed eventually at 1 ish, as I left apparently he wanted to get up again, eventually he fell asleep at 2, was awake at 6 and after another kip eventually got up at 8:30ish...
He'd had double dose of Olanzapine ( Antpsycotic) at 5pm and double dose of Zopiclone ( Sleeping tabs) at 9:30 not sure it helped any All on the recommendation of the specialist as Dad had been really problematic yesterday afternoon
Mum and I are shattered, didn't get to sleep until gone 3 worrying and the kids were up at 6. ( my eldests 5th birthday today and I haven't been too jolly for it ) Been trying to get hold of the specialist since 9, still no call back, resorted to the GP and am waiting for a call after 4 from them too... just need some help!
Really stressed it to the person at the Mental Heath centre that it needs something today and guess I just have to wait and see what comes..
Just feel we are well out of our depth on dealing with him now - especially at night
