I have a 33 year old son and my husband and I are worried about him.
He's a handsome, intelligent man, who was always popular. He worked as a newspaper journalist, but when cutbacks left him unemployed after 7 years, he totally changed. Always a hard worker, he soon landed another reporter job, but he didn't like the job after a month and quit. He fell into a depression and we had to bring him back home, as he was living 1000 miles away. He wont take antidepressants because of their side-effects.
He wanted so bad to work and sent his resume everywhere. He landed a lucrative job, but had a breakdown on the first day and quit. That was 2 weeks ago. Since then he has kept to himself all the time. I came home yesterday when he wasn't expecting me and I caught him sobbing uncontrollably in his room.
He was diagnosed in childhood with whats called Non-verbal Learning Disorder. I don't know if this is important.
Somebody please help me.
