My son, I'm really worried about him. He is very intelligent and I'm afraid has developed some of my traits.

He dropped out of regular school. Then started alternative. Now he's dropped out of that. I told him it's ok if he gets his GED as long as he goes to college. Well now he is staying up all night and sleeping all day. He has a T but he hasn't been much help. His T is rather judgemental but my son likes him. He rarely makes his appointments. I want him to get a psych eval, but his therapist needs to put in the request. With me finally stabilizing. I haven't been that proactive with making sure it gets done. His T thinks it's just behavior issues anyway.

I don't know what to do. He is so pessimistic, he thinks the education system is a joke. I tell him that may be true but u have got to go to college, live your dreams. He wants to go into physics, but h e won't do anything but watch tv and surf the web. He focuses on how our society is so screwed up. I think he's suffering from depression. I don't know what to do. I'm so worried.
