[QUOTE="Sumsky, post: 742233, member: 22893"] She is recommending very intensive therapy. They mentioned trauma type therapy, I’m not sure if that is how they were referring to the intensity or what that was exactly. (Therapists were along and asked most of the questions) Starting out as a minimum of 3 times a week... but she also mentioned group therapy and inpatient. She said this is going to be a very long term treatment. She also said he is going to have a breaking point and she’s not sure what that will look like. She said to expect a major depressive episode when reality starts to set in. She also said this is not going to be a straight upward recovery... we need to expect a lot of ups and downs. SS seems fine. He agrees with the findings and said that describes him. I don’t think any reality has set in for him. Husband did not talk the whole way home and had some things to take care of tonight so I haven’t had a chance to talk to him yet. I am scared!!!! I am afraid of what the breaking point is going to look like. But I am also hopeful that this is something tnat we can work through. She does not like the term personality disorder and since he is 16 cannot be diagnosed with one anyway, but she is seeing more dependency characteristics and schoziod characteristics. Basically, he has to be ‘gently’ made to see his behaviors and the effects they are having on those around him. I don’t know??!! So many questions I have right now. And I’m not sure my husband can or will do what is needed to help SS. I just don’t know how our current situation is going to be able to give him the help he needs. Husband is still resisting inpatient/residential treatment. His official diagnosis is anxiety disorder/non specific. [/QUOTE]
