[QUOTE="HaoZi, post: 415746"] I've been through that situational depression. I was 16 when my mom died after from chronic illnesses. If therapy alone can get through to him, that's great. I hid my depression for months and ended up on Zoloft and Pamelor, and it really helped me not just feel better but also be able to examine my depression better to lift out of it. It may take at least short-term medication treatment just to get him to a point where he's willing to accept therapy. I do worry that it's not just stubbornness, but maybe also what he feels is a way to join his friend and/or self-punishing since it's harder for him to be cutting while he's there. [/QUOTE]
