[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 725307, member: 1550"] I was in a hospital for ten weeks for depression and anxiety, very severe. So I understand mental illness, but don't believe it is a good excuse for not living. Your son won't help himself. That is the entire problem. I remember feeling scared, having panic attacks (which are not fun) and feeling depressed enough to want to die. But I kept trying and took my medications. I did therapy, went to groups, read self help books, got better. Certainly I would have taken vitamin B12. No problem! I would not have wanted to be I'll when I didnt have to be. Your son's depression and anxiety does not explain refusing to help himself. He is not gravely psychiatrically I'll. He has two very common treatable mental health disorders. I understand why your husband is puzzled. So am I and I do understand mental illness. I hope things get better for both of you! Prayers! [/QUOTE]
