[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The pediatrician's depression screening is a pretty weak basis for not seeing a therapist. Whether or not your DS meets a clinical definition of depression he clearly is very unhappy and heading toward a path of school refusal. He needs help. What are you waiting for?[/quote] I don't know. It sounds pretty normal to me - I wouldn't be inclined to send him to a therapist so quickly. It sounds like he wants less intervention right now. I'd be inclined to back off and leave him be for a while - especially in relation to school. Help him find some joy in life again! If it gets worse, though, it might be a good idea to see a therapist of his choosing. [/quote]
