Googley, I appreciate your response. I am going to see my psychologist this week and just flat out ask her if she could interview AJ. I would be willing to give up my appointments for him if she has no other times. I just don't know if she's lgbt accepting, which is such an important aspect of this. I want AJ to come to his own healthy conclusions about his sexual identity.

I had to go and pick AJ up from school on Thursday, and he was too upset to go to school on Friday, because a girl he is friends with had a breakdown of sorts right in front of him and as he was trying to help her teachers kept pushing him out of the way to get to her, the police/ambulance were called and the school was put on lockdown. He truly cares so much about people, to the point where it affects him TOO much and increases his anxiety. I just don't know how to handle any of this, and the unhealthy obsessions just have. to. stop.

Thank you again for taking the time to respond. It means a great deal.
