Sorry that this has spelling mistakes I don't have spell check.... quick mention of suicide.
Thanks guys
He has 1/3 the decisions in our family and makes his decisions his medication unless it's life threatining. I am truely sure all of these statments where made through his own concutions. Our family does not talk about medication and strongly believe IN medication. I believe him when I asked who he talked to about this and he said no one. He told us today that it's because he doesn't want us to die due to the medication. Stupid lawyer commercials. We don't have TV so all the floods of tourt commercials concered him.
He knows our dx. has looked it up online by himself. This whole disscution came about because I was on PC, he knows what PC is and he had a fit. I think this was more about him, HIS dreams, his medication and admitting mental illness. He's worried that Mental illness and the ability to succed with mental illness. To him if the cemicals in our brain are weird, how is he going to be a great scientist when that relize on the brain. So because medication changes the brain it changes you. Yes, he's a weird 10 yr. old. He felt his ADHD medication "changed him" and that's why he chose not to continue it.
We went over other "invisable" desisase and how they require medication. We also went over what our Dx. means, how medication helps, who we see, what position on our treatment each person plays and that we want to change his treatment team to the same center we are in so we could have a more coherant team. He has agreed to change his Pdoc, therapist, and family dr. After I had him draw our conversation.Then he ran out and explained it to his dad. I was more worried that he tried to end his life again because he is picking at his skin again. Then his toughts on us taking medication or who, if anyone, was talking crap about us.
