I've tried obvious phrases like services de l'aide sociale, but only got a load of pdf policy documents, and child care stuff. I want them to take a look at ex-h, who is going downhill fast.

Hi,
have a look at the following link and see if you can find what you need.

I'm a native speaker and lived many years in France, if you need assistance to find the right service, let me know.

slim, I'm looking for something like an addiction clinic, but not sure how to proceed. Not even sure if that's the right treatment. He is just weird - sort of addicted to the idea of his own power, if that makes sense.
It can't be ignored any more. I can't really list all his symptoms here, but he is def not normal any more.

Could it be a manic episode?.........or cocaine?

Sorry to be so blunt but that's what immediately crosses my mind.

inamuckingfuddle · 01/11/2007 11:11

would this help?

Nightynight · 01/11/2007 11:13

no, I am sure it is not drugs or alcohol. It started with a male menopause sort of thing, and just went downhill.
He is violent and can't manage his anger. eg he smashed his phone the other day, because I said that our divorce was just a divorce - he was trying to tell me that it was a full scale war, we are enemies to the death etc.

yeah that looks like the people you need to contact.

Nightynight · 01/11/2007 11:14

oh, thank you iamf. Those people might know more.
In Germany, there is a heavy reliance on treating psychiatric patients by drugs, a colleague of mine campaigns against it. Do you know if it is the same in France?

slim22 · 01/11/2007 11:21

Well If I'm not mistaken they have one of the highest rates of prescription ADs and sleeping pills....

Nightynight · 01/11/2007 11:25

mmm. that's not so good.
He wouldn't take drugs, anyway, he won't even take a paracetamol.

inamuckingfuddle · 01/11/2007 11:38

hope you manage to get some help and support, sounds like you need it

slim22 · 01/11/2007 11:41

Call the unafam helpline and explain, they'll have people who've been there.

But if he won't take meds, would he accept counselling?

Sorry have to pop out, will be back later.

Hang in there. Anger is soooooo hard to overcome. He might really need mood stabilizers but talking would be a good start.

Nightynight · 01/11/2007 17:45

thanks. Getting him to treatment will be difficult, as like addicts, he is convinced that there is nothing wrong with him, despite a lot of evidence to the contrary.
