I Love My Son

So my son has just been sleeping in my bed all day, he woke up a few times, twice panicking cause he didn't know where he was, I keep making him drink so he doesn't get dehydrated. Last night he woke up about 3am not knowing where he was and I assured him I was there with him and he lied his head on my chest and cuddled with me which is something has never done since he was 4. I felt really happy that he was comfortable near me, mostly since in the last week all hes said to me was I hate you, or I'm the worst and then he felt safe while having phyical contact with me. He's sleeping right now I'm just on my laptop here in case he wakes up and needs something all in all its been a pretty quiet day

Is he sick?

No he just got out of the hospital for attempting suicide and he's really mad at me for putting him in there and is still really depressed and under a ton of stress and emotional discomfort plus he refuses to talk to anyone including me about how he feels and I think it's all just built up so much it finally crashed and it resulted in a grand mal seizure

:( :( Hugs to you both. Depression is a bastard to live with.

@Eeyore122: thank you. Hugs back, it's the worst thing

I've had various flavors of depression, first kind diagnosed at age 15. 😑

@Eeyore122: that's about how old Lucas was diagnosed. I'm really sorry to hear that, I hope you're doing well now😃

Hangin in there. Turns out I'm Bipolar 2. The mood stabilizers are a huge help. I don't scream at people just cuz I want to orgo on shopping trips spontaneously, or become fluent in "French". My family and friends seem to appreciate it.

Well I'm glad your feeling better. Your family and friends should appreciate you no matter what though. It's hard i know but you're still you. @Eeyore122:
