This is my first post but am hoping someone can help me, direct me or tell me where to look. I have a 13 year old son that is out of control and I am out of ideas to help him and am scared every day for him. For the past 3 years he has been getting in trouble, hanging out with the wrong kids and failing school....He tried to kill himself a few months ago with pills and has been diagnosed with ADD & a mood disorder.
I have tried a psychiatric hospital, several counselors and he is currently on medication. He is the best liar I have ever known and am scared of what he will do to himself or our family. Today we found cigarettes, pills, pot and used condoms in his room and I am crushed and a nervous wreck. I don't know how to help him and I can't watch him do this to himself and he is tearing apart my marriage. He is disrespctful to me, adults and anyone who isn't in his circle. I am so upset most of the time that this is affecting my work, my relationship with my other son and every part of my life.
I don't know where to go from here. I can't find any local support that doesn't cost a fortune and I am out of ideas and don't know what to do...If anyone knows of any programs in Idaho or resources they can share I would so appreciate.
Thanks for reading
