I am sorry to hear about your son. My daughter finally asked for help and I took her to her primary car doctor who helped her get some help. My problem is that she was 19. They consider her an adult. I am now trying to piece together both our lives, but we are on the right road. Where your son is 17, I think I would say keep trying to get him to a doctor. I know this is draining and hard for you also. Keep your chin up and know there are others in your situation! My thoughts are with you!
