Um, what are the rules here? Are we allowed to actually give honest feedback, or are we limited to being "supportive"?

I went and read your previous posts, and wow, it sounds like your son is pretty normal and struggling to cope with what has been going on in your life. If you're depressed, stopped taking your meds and quit therapy, my guess is that your behavior is not making him feel safe and/or loved at this point, particularly in light of what you are saying about not liking him since he was 12. Kids can pick up on that, I know I did.

Your son's behavior with other people that you mention in other posts tells me that he is fundamentally a good kid. Maybe it's time to take a look at whether you're treating him with the love, acceptance and respect that a kid deserves from his mother, instead of dwelling on how you don't like him. Maybe rethink your meds and therapy situation and take a good long hard look at who you're dating.

Sorry to be a hag about this, but you blaming your son for your depression and hospitalization is just unacceptable.
