[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We talk all the time and he opens up. He says he doesn't know why he feels so apathetic. We have other children as well who he loves and plays with. I know this is serious and he has an appt. I understand how serious this is and am taking it seriously. [b]I was asking if any parents have any BTDT advice?[/b] From a parenting perspective. I know what I HAVE to do. [/quote] I do not have a 17 yo son but I have a 14 yo daughter. She is struggling through gender identity issues and has told me she has thought about suicide but it is not the answer for her "right now." When we heard that, we called the CrisisLink number and worked through a psychiatrist, a counselor, as well as the counselor at her school. We continue to see the doctor as well as the counselors to support her.[/quote]
