Prayers and meds not helping my son he'll be ok then he drifts back into darkness I don't want to lose my child. I wish he was well I don't like this. Why do mental issues even exist? 😢

Sorry for what you're going through.

Can't think of anything worse than watching a Loved one suffer, and not be able to do anything.

Sometimes we have to do just that - nothing.

Sometimes all we can do is pray.

Sometimes we need to pray and act.

Are you satisfied with the medical attention he has received?

Praying for discernment for you, so that you'll know when & how to act (if needed) and have the courage to just 'be' when silence is needed.

May God Bless you with His Peace within.

And may you be able to remain calm and composed during his dark times , a soothing presence.

Then, if your Precious son asks for your help, you will be prepared.

😔

❤️

I'm not satisfied with his outpatient care. The Dr calls once or twice a month but no counseling which he needs

All I can say is I feel your pain because I am going through something similar with my son at this time. It’s gut wrenching when we have no control over their welfare. I’m at a loss as to how to move forward. I’m honestly clinging by a hair. May we both find the strength to survive our trials.
