I have written on this site regarding a friends son who's been suffering from manic depression about l5 years possibly(Bipolar)he has all the symptoms.His depressive states are getting longer,he has cut himself off from his family saying he just wants to be alone and doesn't want to talk to anyone.He has suicidal thoughts all the time and says,every day he wakes up feeling empty and in hell.He has rejected anti-depressants,says they do nothing(but has only taken them for a few days).He has no self worth,can't mix with people.Was recently emotionally slaughtered in a relationship which has completely wiped out any self esteem he may have built up.Anyone out there who can tell us what to do next.He can't see any help out there.His parents are so desperate,sectioning him is being considered,as he won't go willingly for help and they fear for his safety.Anyone been there,what happened to you and how did you get help.They don't want to section him but don't know what else to do.
