I read your advice on my previous question, and thank you for this. I have taken the subject up with my son, told him I talked to a shrink (which I did,) and said it is a feasible option.
Someone mentioned that a person not acting rationally should not be able to make serious decisions themselves.
He is acting rationally, comparatively for him. He refuses medications, and refuses the mental hospital.
The thing that scares me is that the trip, according to research will scar his record. It is already probable he won't make it into the colleges he wants to get into, even with an IQ of 150+ and great SAT/ACT scores, 600+ hours of veterinary 'internship.'
He says that if he can't get into these colleges because I sent him, regardless of "depression," he will kill himself.
No meds can cure someones dreams being shattered, can they? What can I do?
