Suicidal ideation at 7 years old is not normal kid behavior, neither is sudden and unprecedented paralyzing anxiety over the prospect of ordinary things like going to a friend's birthday party or trying a new playground.

Me and my mom are on identical doses of Prozac to treat very similar symptoms.

We consulted with a child therapist, a pediatrician, and a psychiatrist.


You are shockingly patient and nice to these people who are going out of their way to be judgmental jerks.

Kudos to you; you're inspiring me to find more grace in my life, but don't feel obligated to respond to these people who are trying only to bring people down.


> You are shockingly patient

It’s the Prozac, obviously /s

It really does take a lot to be able to deal with all the comments they’re getting, and I know from my own experience that once you’re living a life of both seeing and experiencing struggles with mental health, it becomes something you adapt to rather quickly.


Did you stop reading before he described the extensive consultations with the pediatric psychologist?
