My husband and I encouraged our 16 year old son to be admitted for a psych eval after he'd been brought into the guidance office at school for telling his friend he tried to kill himself.
He'd been a little depressed & dealing with our recent (8 mo ago)seperation pretty well. He'd been on meds and had couple sessions of therapy. Unfortunately his girl friend of nearly a year just broke up with him.
I need encouragement and advice on how to communicate with him now. I've had depression too and understand how it takes over, but I am pretty spooked by his hoplessness and resignation. Ya know?
