“”You can ask a therapist what to do about the depression, and how to handle it””
SMC, from what I have read, it seems as though her son has never been seen/diagnosed by a therapist so saying that he is suffering from depression is a self-diagnosis by someone who is obviously not educated in psychology and should not be diagnosing anyone especially her own son. Furthermore, I would hope that a therapist would insist on seeing/evaluating wow’s son prior to offering anyone advice on how to deal with any mental health issue.
