Interesting, and I guess you have nothing to worry about if you never plan to use your dick.

Time for a derail.

Trying to sleep with a cracked rib is like trying to pleasure a woman without fingers, a penis, lips, or a tongue. Extremely difficult. :D

How'd you end up doing that? Is it just because you're old or did you like fight a bear or something?

My son had a manic episode and tackling me with all of his weight was part of it.

Aw :(

Sh*t. Sorry dude. Hope things get better.

Part of the package of housing a schizophrenic 28 year old child. On the plus side it'd been over two years since the last "episode".

He feels like total **** about it in hindsight but my job is to downplay it.

In other news: Roxy's stalking me again. I'll take the cracked rib. Thank you very much.

Fair play Chula. I know how difficult it can be looking after someone with schizophrenia. You seem like you're doing a good job with it all.

Is he diagnosed schizophrenic?

This is the cruelest condition ever. I got him to see my doctor who spent about 20 minutes talking with him and afterwards made him promise to seek psychiatric help. He never did. He and I have had many conversations where he's lucid, and he'll admit he's messed up, only to wake up the next day in complete denial. I've read a ton of books and consulted with a bunch of docs and even attended a few NAMI meetings. He's 100% schizo. The only thing that keeps him grounded is living at home with me and Lin (no pressure, no stress). He's tried moving out at least a half dozen times only to crash and burn badly. The worst being when he took a job up in LA. Within a few months he'd lost the job, got thrown out of his apartment, and totalled his car. He spent 3 months homeless and when I finally tracked him down and got him home it took a few weeks to get him back to semi-normal. Those were some scary times.

This is a fascinating read on the subject:
