Hi I new to this chat. I am extremely worries about my 23 year old son. He has dealt with mental health issues his whole life has ADHD and was medicated until he left school. He has always lashed out in anger and it has been a day to day journey with him. For the last 4 years he has been in a really good place - had a job friends, going to the gym and was outgoing and confident. The place where he was working shut down and since then has been unable (really not trying to get a job) - I had let him go as I thought he would be ok - but it has been just over 4 months now - he has not left his room (only to get food), has not left the house, stopped going to the gym or seeing friends. He is clearly having a mental health episode. I have tried talking to him numerous times but each time when I started he just said he wasn't ready to talk and I tried to give him some space. In the last few weeks when I try and discuss he gets emotionally angry, tells me to **bleep**, that I am just watchuing him suffer and not being supportive. Last week he has threatened to 'off himself" and just wants to be left alone. I am extremely worried about him. What I want to say is I dont need him to get work but I really want him to see a mental health profressional and he is refusing to even talk to me. I just dont know where to go from here. I cant just let him sit at home emotionally abusing me when I try to help. It is impacting my partner and two other children who live in the house. I know I need to also support the rest of us in our mental health fitness. I am just really lost on where to go from here.  ... View more
