Update on son in high school w depression symptoms


I posted about a month ago with concerns about my 18 year old high school senior son who had been extremely down and depressed for a while. Well.... My boy is doing great and even sent in his first college application today!We have been talking/listening to him, working w him, spending more time w him, he’s visited his college counselor, the guidance counselor, spent some time w his football coaches... and overall he seems so much happier, calmer, and almost back to his usual goofy self. I’m obviously not assuming he’s 100% cured, by any means, but things are looking SO MUCH BETTER!He was so excited to start applying for schools, and watching him proudly send in that first app today brought tears to my eyes. He even baked for the family last night, and ate it in front of the TV with us!!! Really excited to stay on this path and keep working towards getting him to a happy and healthy place!Thank you to everyone who commented with advice and suggestions on my last post, you all really made me feel like we weren’t alone.Edit: spelling via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2N0gLcR
