Have you read the book, "I'm Not Sick", by Xavier Amadour? It is a great book about how to connect with your loved one who does not understand they are sick.
Also, please got to the Treatment Advocacy Website. www.treatmentadvocacycenter.org They have a state by state listing of laws and rules and regulations on how you can get your loved one into treatment. they also have a hotline number.
Also, I belong to a Facebook Group - parents of adult children who have serious mental illness - bipolar, schizophrenia, etc. you are not alone. They have been through what you are going through.
There are also local NAMI, National Alliance on Mental Illness Groups - that have support group meeting for parents with adult children with a mental illness.
But the immediate need... to get your son into treatment...go to the TAC website.
