[quote=Anonymous]Agree with removing screens, it can make a remarkable difference. Also, get on a waitlist for a neuropsych. I think there may be anxiety and executive function issues in addition to the depression and now is the time to identify and address. Continue to clean the room, living in filth will not help, I'd suggest he do it with you. A daily shower, shampoo, brushed teeth and clean clothes are also non-negotiable. Before things got to this point, had he had mood issues? Trouble with friends that could stem from ADD or anxiety? School issues? Any history of mood issues, bipolar, etc. on either side of the family? I'd also consider drug testing. [/quote]
