[quote=Anonymous]I don't mean to be dismissive/rude/ignorant etc but have you looked at alternative therapies? I'm not saying for you or your son to stop meds but what if you try something different in addition. Meditation has been proven to be beneficial for depression. Harvard just concluded a 15 year study on the benefits of meditation with depression and hypertension. Yoga also is a great tool. It helps sync your mental state and physical state - the word yoga actually means union. There's an organization called Art of Living - it has a great space here in DC. It is not a denominational religious org but it has roots in India/Hinduism. The premise of their practice is using the breath as a tool in meditation. I have taken 2 of their courses when I was depressed and it helped a lot. I wish I kept the practice up but life gets in the way :). I truly hope you and your son find peace. I just encourage you to look elsewhere and try it - what have you got to lose?[/quote]
