My son is a Sophmore in college, eight hours from home. He was a 3 star athlete in high school and the "big man" on campus. Now he is a little fish in a big sea.

He struggles with weight and weighs 320 he is 6'5' luckily, and his dad struggles with weight as well. He is studying athletic training in college and had a rough semester. If he does not get a 3.0 GPA he will get kicked out of the program. RIght now he has a 2.7-2.8 GPA.

He sent me a note today that he wrote 3 weeks ago saying he was better off with his Uncle (who commited sucide 7 years ago) and did not feel that he should be here. Of course I am very upset and and am trying to get him into counseling. He has been to the dr's who put him on Zoloft for Depression but he I just found out that he is not taking the medication.
I need some advice, it cares me becuase depression runs in my family and my brother commited suicide.
Help
