Depressing or not

I am sorry so many feel this place has become depressing and down but I still have to come share with those that still will care..
My son is now going to take a walk at 12 :13 am in the morning , by himself,because he is so depressed and thinks he's going insane because of these terrible feelings Panic attacks..I fear him doing that..
I feel so angry and helpless!.. Angry cause his Dad is not working fast enough.. taking his time at getting him the help he needs.. Angry cause I can't do much from where I am.. Helpless because he's in another state and it's night and all I can do it talk to him on im and pray he gets though the night.. Knowing tomorrow he is going to have a terrible day trying to go to school and having panic attacks..If he gets any sleep that is..

I am so sorry that you are having to deal with this... long distance makes it even harder!!! I sure hope that the therapist will realize the gravity of the problem. He will need to go to a doctor too- asap.

I can tell you one thing that helps me when I start to dwell on my problems, maybe it will help him. That is to try to do something to distract me. Does he have any close friends he could hang out with? Maybe go to a funny movie with them? Sometimes friends give a good distraction to your problems. While he's comfortable letting it out with you, he will have to hold it in a little with his friends and maybe he can have some fun for just a short time????

Please keep us updated. We are all concerned.

Cat,

Depressing or not, even in chat, you can talk about your son! People don't have to read if they don't want to depending on their moods. I find pleasure being around here, whether there are good things, or bad. Your son needs prayers at the moment life happens, and if you don't post then it limits the number of prayers going to heaven! So keep posting all you want, your son deserves the best, so does everyone!

Awwwwww Lee,
My heart is breaking for you and your son.
But, you are there for him. He has you to talk to him and love him and care about him and let him know he is a good person and very loved no matter what.
You are being a very important person in his life, his mother who loves him and talks to him no matter what time of day or night he needs you. That is so important for him. He knows he can call you and cry and talk whenever he needs you. You are there for him far more than his dad is. He is turning to you his mom. He trusts you to be calling you like this.
I hope this comes to a good resolution and that you will all find peace soon.
Please do not feel like it is to depressing to type here. That is what we are here for anything you need to type you feel free to type here. You know that Lee. You are one of the original boardies here.
The board is here for the happy and the sad. We need each other more than ever now. People are going through hard times. It does not mean it is depressing, just a great pleace for support.
So it is a good place to have to come to for venting, and support.
((((((((((Lee))))))))))

Cat,


I said that things work theirselves out because I think most of the time they do. Maybe not the big stuff, but last night was a scary time, and today is a new day. That's all I mean. I know your son needs help. Teenagers have it harder than anyone, I remember those years well. They suck and I would never want to repeat them. Tell him to hang on, know he is loved, and you can promise him with confidence that his life will get better. You are helping him, he is getting help, and you guys will be ok. You really will.


I am so sorry Cat, you must be just petrified. I wish there was something I could do for you both.


Hugs,


Sandra

Hi Jules... Thanks for sharing how you did such a thing as my son did during your time of depression at a younger age.. I was so very worried about him, not that he would harm himself but just with the world today as is..

Hi Beth.. Posted to you just about 8 mins ago at other spot but wanted to reply here also..
No Hon there is no way to reason with ex.. He only says for Son to come with me during times when he and my Son have bad bad arguments.. Then it's come get this kid!.. I almost at times wish it would occur again hope-ing son would come... but then to hear the pain in his voice, the anger he contained but is un leashed,The sadness, well it's then something I don't wish on the other hand..
I and ~S~ let son know and have asked him to come.. He is not happy with his inviroment

Hi Caly Hon...Thanks for your words of support.. I was indeed feeling so low but had to vent and did so as most of us have at times.. Took me a long time to feel comfortable to open up with such vents as Pam can tell you.. I would always be the happy one giving others support and not sharing my stuff.. I held back.. But one day I felt comfortable enough after a time of being at this special place and now I just let it happen at times..
I have not talked to his school.. Supposedly the school is suppose to know all this stuff he's going through and they are suppose to be working on setting him up with a one on one type thing in classroom ,just him and a
