[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 155042, member: 3419"] I agree. Just be there for him until you get an appointment. with-a family history like that, you know the statistics are not in your favor... I would attempt a bit of cognitive therapy to see if it works. I mean, if the voices in the TV (I'm assuming it's not turned on) are not scary, ask what they are saying. Then tell difficult child to think about [B]why[/B] the voices might be there if the TV is [I]not [/I]turned on. Then direct him to telling them to go away because he's busy with-school, dinner, whatever, and he can't talk to them right now. The idea is to get a very early grip on the fact that he is in control of the voices, not the other way around. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
