Hi Brad - sorry to hear what you are going through. My son and I got into a fight one time when he first had EC because he was missing so much school - and he said if it didnt get better he would probably kill himself - I dont think he was seriout - but it was pretty scary - made me realize how much he was affected by this and I took what he was goimg through a lot more seriously. I've tried to get him to go to counseling but he doesnt think it will help, but I think sometimes just having someone else to talk to helps - even if its a stranger. Its funny, the counselor that evaluated him when he made the suicide threat- her son had EC from Accutane - I wanted him to see her for counseling becuase she didn't think it was "all in his head" but we couldn't go to her because she did the evaluation.
