[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 653054, member: 13542"] Terri, I can't say it any better than COM just did. I also went through remarkable shenanigans to get my daughter to a psychiatrist, same banging on the door, same amazing resistance, then she wanted me to be in the room and contradicted everything I said with arms folded across her chest, defiant in her stance. I was utterly exhausted from trying and trying and trying. That's what we all do............. then one day, we don't. And, we all get there when we get there, no right or wrong, your son is quite young. All I would add is to make sure you are getting support. Therapy, a parent group a 12 step group, whatever feels right to you. This is next to impossible to do alone. Your son has issues so you may contact NAMI, they have very, very good courses for parents which are supportive for YOU. You need support and tender care through this too. It's so hard on a marriage and worse on us........so please, get yourself some support. It'll help in ways you can't even imagine now. HUGS to you Terri. [/QUOTE]
