    Ditto. 911 right now and he needs to be hospitalized. You can’t do this at home.

    Wose hope you took advice of calling 911 and that all is working out. When my LO got physically aggressive, one of my neighbors heard my screams and called 911. It was sad watching them take him away to psyche ward but the positive was that he was put on meds that calmed his aggression. He had no recollection of the event and has not been physical since. Pray you are well.
