He is a bit older than I thought, and some of what I said sounds abit infantile.....but the concept is the same. Would your son feel comfortable talking to me through you, online? Does he know about PC?

You will often feel nuttier than he does!! It is so hard for carers.....even harder sometimes than the person with the disorder. I also have borderline personality disorder and bipolar(can't remember if I mentioned that earlier) but it is all manageable now......took a while to get here but it does eventually work out......the fact that he is so intelligent will be his saviour and also his greatest nemesis.......big stuff! First hand experience, I guess....

Good luck, and I am happy to talk to him if you are both willing.......let me know how you go.......
