[quote=Anonymous]OP I understand now that you are well aware of the medical side of things. I would still recommend ER/psych ward or possibly Dominion (don't know about their facilities or how they take people in). However, that apparently is not what you are asking. I am concerned that his entire life is online. That is all too common in these kids. Is there any chances you could limit his online activities? Give him an hour a day or so and have him "earn" extra time by doing other things--cooking the family dinner, going out for a walk or to a museum with you etc.? The beach idea is not a bad one to get him used to living without dependence on personal electronics, but you'd need a plan to keep computer use in check afterwards. [/quote]
