[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD went through a phase like this.  Turned out she was working through some very personal issues; she refused to talk to the therapist about it, but has sorted things out.[/quote]

Not the OP. I'm glad that your daughter worked through her issues without a therapist -- but your posting seems to be saying to OP that what *her* son is going through is just a phase. That's the type of diagnosis you can only make in hindsight. Some teens' phases end in suicide. If OP's son is expressing suicidal thoughts on a daily basis, she needs to take that very seriously and get her son psychiatric help immediately. She can't rely on the comfort that "it's just a phase."[/quote]

PP here.  She refused to talk to a therapist, but she was brought to the hospital when she verbalized a plan.  The issue she was dealing with was her friends starting to crush on boys, and she was oriented differently.  Once she realized what was going on, came out, she has had no repercussions, and is happy again.[/quote]
