Will any of you buy Oprah's mag. this month? There is suppose to be an article from the mother of one of the Columbine killers in there. I have to admit I am interested. My son is the same age as those kids. He was diagnosed as bi-polar shortly before this happened. I know for months this really bothered me. I finally had to quit watching the news. I may buy it.

Thanks for sharing your story.


People need to know that reactionary depression-depression in response to an incident like a divorce, death, life changing event is just as real and in need of treatment (therapy and/or meds)

I'm so glad for both you and your son. It's hard to understand the struggle parents go through when they have a child who is a drug abuser unless you've lived through it.

I think he was almost 50 before he got any kind of right treatment, and he is so much more damaged than he should be, because of all the years of neglect.


That is so sad.
