Want to thank everyone for their thoughts and support on this thread. As much as I read the other threads and the back and forth and arguing among the group, this thread has shown the support of total strangers to me and my family and I very much appreciate it.
It is still going very slowly as the medicine issue is very difficult to get right. Switching meds so often seems like there is no stability for him and we may start looking for second opinions. I have a call to another doctor and supposed to talk with them over the phone this afternoon.
Talking to my son yesterday he was frustrated how every day seems the same and he wakes up miserable about the future prospects of life. He can't seem to find any peace. I know he will be OK again but the struggle and being in the bottom of this pit is something I would not wish on my worst enemy. A broken leg, arm, or physical issue is straightforward but when your brain turns on itself, its hard to get a hold of it.
Thanks for all the responses.
