[QUOTE="Desperately Sad, post: 723329, member: 18614"] Bless you all, thank you so much for all your suggestions and replies, I will look into all of them and certainly try and find some help for myself, at least since my son is at the moment refusing any medication or treatment. For the last 6 days he has been shut away in his bedroom 24/7, and only ventures out if he thinks no one is around for food. I have had a couple of short text from him in 6 days most of these mentioning how he is feeling numb and empty and that he cares about no one or anything. He also says that he is thinking about suicide most evenings!. I have replied that I think he needs professional help which I am happy to pay for, I also said that I cannot control what he does or does not do, but I am here and would like to help if I can. Am I right in thinking that part of this is attention seeking as he went outside the other night and sat outside in the DARK in an outside office, we have for 3 hours, when I asked if he wanted to chat etc he said he wanted to be left on his own. Since we do not bother him in his bedroom, why would he not sit in there as normal rather than sit in the dark in a cold out door office, if not for attention?? I think I know what I have to do, I just cannot make myself NOT care! that is the problem. Thank you all once again, I really feel that this is the only place where people understand what I am going through! [/QUOTE]
