[quote=Anonymous]I am a person whose kid started medication in the past 6 months at age 12. When she was at her lowest depression/anxiety point last year, I was concerned that she was so in her head and self-centered that she would always bring negativity to our family, that we'd always be walking on eggshells around her, and that the black hole of her energy suck would affect all of her current and future relationships I had a bad day at work yesterday. She sat down and chatted with me at dinner, sharing funny stories to help lift my mood. She offered a bunch of unsolicited hugs. My kid - the one who was buried in a brain full of worry - is back. There are still ebbs and flows, but it feels like a miracle given where we were.[/quote]
