[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 692335, member: 1550"] Does he wish to get help? At his age you can't force it. There is nothing you have the power to do if he won't agree. There comes a time when parents no longer have that power. Your only plans can be setting boundaries. You can not force your son to work or get help. You certainly can tell him that if he won't work and get help, he can't live in your house. You can talk to husband and you two can decide on any boundaries you both agree on. Your son is too old for you to help. That is now on his shoulders. There must be more than one mental health care facility in your state. He drives. He can drive to another facility rather than waiting for the closest facility to have an opening. There are options, but you, like the rest of us, have to take back your power. Your don to me sounds like he may suffer from body dysmorphia. [/QUOTE]
