[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here-- I appreciate all the thoughtful comments and suggestions. It is so hard and I know it is not a one size fits all type of problem/solution. My DH, who I mentioned, is going through his own difficult moment but he has done a really good job at being present in front of the kids so I think the kids are pretty clueless to how much he is struggling. But we both work from home so when the kids go to school and we have a moment, we both end up in tears over this. However, in front of the kids, while we can express "we are sad" or "we are having a hard time", we don't let it derail the family time or let them know how much of a struggle it is right now. My DS is like the kid that posters wrote about---he received the "student of the year" award, he is on the honor roll, has interests.... apparently none of that matters when something is chemically off. And while I am thankful the school has safety rails up and the counselor is so in tune with my son, he won't always have that available. We are just so scared. [/quote] OP, I'm so sorry you're going through this. It's definitely scary. I think getting with the therapist is a good idea. Also reach out to the pediatrician about SSRI's if you can't get in with a pediatric psychiatrist. [/quote]
