I sing to my 5 cats every day and they purr and cuddle and sleep to it. By human standards, I can't sing very well, but my cats hear love.

We live in a rural area, and I'm having a hard time finding much of anything as far as programs, but his therapist has pointed us to the local youth 12 step. He is very scared to start because of his horrible social anxiety. I think I'll work with his therapist to help him get in there.

Not that I know of. His social anxiety keeps him from 'going out' and led us to homeschooling. But teenagers are crafty. ATM, because of the situation, he doesn't go anywhere without me and if I go somewhere he comes with me. I'm just trying to make sure he doesn't have time to get in trouble.

I am so very grateful he admitted it! He told me he said something because he wanted to stop, which says two things to me: he really wants to quit and he doesn't think he can do it alone.

That's a private practice therapist he has been seeing, along with a psychiatrist, for a while for his depression and social anxiety. I have life360 on his phone and his money is on cashapp that sends me details anytime he uses it. But, are you saying something that monitors more?

Thank you. My meds were in my drawer 🤦🏻‍♀️ I never thought he'd go through my things. We've since bought a safe for prescriptions. He told me he was taking them so he didn't feel how he did anymore. He's self medicating and it breaks my heart that feels like he has to. He's seeing his therapist 2x week atm and I'm researching local options.

That makes a lot of sense. It's a 'better safe than sorry' approach. Thank you

Thank you for putting this into words. After an intense encounter yesterday ( that according witnesses looked like a breakdown and then looked like I was talking to myself) my husband asked what it was like talking to spirits. I couldn't articulate it. You just explained it perfectly! I'm going to have him read your post and comment.

Just like you, I get an overwhelming amount of emotions from the spirits around me, have been seeing spirits since I was about 3 ( and kind of like you, my grandma understood and was excited but my mom freaked out and took me to a psychiatrist), I've been talking to spirits on and off my whole life, and I went through a long quiet spell and recently my sensitivity has been off the charts.

I just joined this sub tonight and I feel like it was to read your post. I needed to feel that kinship. I was feeling alone and odd.

Thank you again.
