Rohag - unfortunately the school doesn't look at it that way...the state views truancy as a form of neglect and while we just barely escaped a court hearing, I'm worried that if it happens again we won't be so lucky.
His disinterest in life is all consuming - he doesn't enjoy anything, only leaves the house for therapy and med checks. It's tough to get him out of bed. We have seen so many doctors, tried so many meds, he is just plain stuck.

He is having yet another tough day - I asked if we could talk and he said no, I asked if there was anything I could do for him and he said no.

I want to fix this for him, but I know that all I can do is support him - he has to want to fight this depression and he just hasn't reached that point yet.
