[QUOTE="rebelson, post: 695797, member: 19966"] The therapist at the PHP facility where my son is, called me today. He wanted the 411 background on son, he said parents are the best historians. I unloaded as much as I could. A few things he said, he had only seen my son once so far. *he is elusive in conversation *he is tangential; changes the topic often *he is avoidant in conversation * he and the other guy who went in there with him (one of the 2 guys he relapsed with) are sticking together in almost everything they do, everywhere they go, are almost inseparable; they have been reminded that it is more healthy for them to interact with other peers. As for the 2nd & 3rd ones, I wonder if he is doing that in a purposeful way as he does not like to talk about anything of depth. Hence how he had hidden his anxiety from so many therapists, MD's, sober living, staff and even me. He uses elusiveness and changing of topics. Is a master at it. As for the last *, that is a bit curious & worrisome to me. He was at the last sober living place for almost 3 months and nobody ever said that that was his behavior there. In fact, they said he was interactive with everybody, pretty much evenly. :(me right now. [/QUOTE]
