I agree that he should not be drinking and taking meds at the same time deadly combination!!! Now for you and your son need to GET OUT OF THE HOUSE!!!!!!!!! Your husband needs help the best way to get the right help for him is to have him admitted to a hospital so correct meds can be given and he can be monitored properly. UNDERSTAND YOU ARE IN DANGER AND SO IS YOUR SON UNFORTUNATELY YOU HUSBAND MAY HURT YOU OR CHILD OR BOTH TILL HE IS PROPERLY MEDICATED AND GETS PROPER COUNSELING

Sweetheart...not sure why you titled this bi-polar husband...but your husband IS physically, verbally and emotionally abusing you and you need to get out NOW.  If he is bi-polar he can see a doctor and get on medication and then if you still want, the two of you can work on your marriage.  But for now...you need to leave...you are not helping either of you.  GBU

Talk to his doctors about visiting.  It's not your mom's place to make that decision.  Keep in mind tho, she may be shielding you based on good intentions, or she may be concerned that you're not apt to be a consistent person in his life, which could make things harder on him.  Again, talk to his doctors and be honest about what you can and can't commit to if they have concerns about continuity.\n\nSchizophrenia is basically an organic illness.  The enviroment does have some interplay, but it's not thought to alone have the power to cause the illness.  In other words, your mom didn't make him have it, but she may (or may not) have exacerbated it.

Trust and believe he is not going to change if he's acting like this now he will be doing the same thing later. If you cant deal with it I suggest you get rid of him SOON!..... GOOD LUCK!

I think its mostly genetic, but high stress can cause a series of other mental disorders. I am sorry your ex husband has been mistreating you, I hope you find someone who can protect you from him.

I have dealt with this too. The best thing to do is for him to start back on his meds. But with someone with this condition you can not convince them. They have to decide for themselves and sometimes they do. You can try to talk to him when he is being nice if you think it is safe. But I know from experience their mood can change quickly. If he is not on his meds you should not be there. It can be dangerous. I know you care for him but you do not want something bad to happen. Find someone to live with until you have the money to move, a friend, a parent, someone.

First off, he needs to see a different doctor. You might check with a local free clinic to see what they would recommend. You don't say where you live, but here in Dallas we have a county hospital that takes lower income patients without any insurance plans.\n\nMy prayers are with you.

Talk to some one that you trust.If this isn't possible go to a psycologist. Don't be surprised by him.  I would exercise all possibilities befor putting him on meds. You could do some research on stress reduction.  I hope this helps.  Love him and support him at this rough time.

I am mentally ill. I can say it. I have had to endure 30 brain surgeries and I suffer, believe me- I SUFFER- some lingering side effects of it. The surgery was for a birth deffect that wasn't detected til I was 19. \n I now suffer from severe bio-polar disorder and, without my meds, I can have mild schitzophrenic tendencies .  Ok, cool. As Long as I knowwww what is wrong with me and how to treat it, I'm ok. I can handle it. \n\n   This person in your house, that might or might not have mental problems, may not even realize they have a problem. I know it took 3 years for us to decide/realize what was wrong with me.  Ever hear of an intervention. or are you the only one who feels this person has a problem? \n    No , you don't have the right to tell someone to 'get off the drugs' when they aren't on any and you KNOW that for a fact. ( Maybe tell them to start taking the RIGHT ones..it took me 8 years to get to the right 'cocktail' of meds I am on now so that I don't talk to the trees and don't cry when they don't answer me. LOL its not thaaat bad,  just kidding  a little But it does take time and cooperation on EVERYONE's part. ) Go to the person , offer what you've observed and offer to HELP said person get the help that they NEED, or to at least see someone and determine if they need anything. It sounds simple, but it isn't. I know. I had to hospitalize my husband twice in the first year we were married before we got him properly diagnosed/medicated for bipoler problems. It stinks and its hard, but up front is the only way to go. Just don't let that person doubt your love and  support for them. \nBy the way... you don't wanna know what all I am on!!

I know a guy just like that who is also in his sixties.  He obsessed about this one girlfriend until his wife finally relented and let him go look her up.  She thought this would help him get her out of his system.  Of course she was nothing like he remembered her.  Not only is he still obsessed with her, though, recently he has become obsessed about another old girlfriend he is worried he was too harsh with when he broke up.\n\nI do think he is mentally ill.  He shows signs of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (although I'm not a psychiatrist to make this diagnosis.)  He's also showing signs of early Alzheimer's (I'm not a medical doctor of any kind) and seems to be only able to think about things in the distant past.  The present, like his good wife, is not his focus any more and it is causing him problems at home and at work.  I wish he'd take my advice and get help.

sounds like panic attacks, but it's really hard to say.  You could see a doctor, but those psychiatric medications they may prescribe can be really poisonous

He should switch you to a different anti depressant. This one is causing anti social behavior. If he won't listen, you need to change doctors.

Not necessarily.  It depends on why he's on them.  If he's just depressed, then no big deal.  You should worry if he has something like Bi-Polar disorder or Schizophrenia.  Find out what he's taking them for, then do a little research.  He's probably fine, though.  Good Luck!
