How long has he been on meds? I was resistant to go onto medication initially, but in hindsight wish I had decades ago. For what it's worth, I admire him at least getting that far. That's far more courageous than I was in the beginning.

Thanks for the reply, I really appreciate it. He wanted the appointment but after my suggesting it so it wasnt a surprise but it wasnt exactly his idea either. He did go on meds which is good but he has a propensity to forget to take them and he has some bad habits (sleep, some drinking- he's 22) that probably inhibits the effectiveness of the meds. He's a good kid but I told him tonight that I wouldn't schedule any more appointments for him, but that the opportunity is always there if he wants to take advantage of it. Thanks again for taking the time to respond!
