Accepted Answer

In : In the state of florida, the marchman act addresses getting help for individuals with serious problems with substance abuse, who are not open to treatment.  This  law can help families through the courts to get loved ones into court ordered and court monitored "intervention assessment stabilization, or detoxification, and long-term treatment".     A family member can petition the court .  
     Under the baker act,  which is specific for psychiatric conditions, even if he has known psychiatric diagnoses, his doctor can only detain him against his will for a brief period unless there is court intervention and he is deemed to be at imminent risk to self or others.   
   I suggest you obtain legal advice. Additionally, do not remain  in the home iwith your spouse if you are afraid that you or your son are in danger.  You can ask the police who intervened for local contact information regarding domestic violence advocacy.  If is important that a safety plan be developed. "knights of kindness" lists a number of florida resources that may be beneficial.
