my son is mentally ill by way of being drugged and raped when he was 17. he is, without question, the genius of our family. a national merit scholar in prep school.he is an amazing poet and an expert about all kinds of music, classical to jazz.. and so many other subjects. he is receiving the best care that boston, has to offer. he does well for months, then suddenly gets very angry.
our family tries very hard to be there for him at all times. we are able to placate him by telling him we understand his feelings. yet he seems to need better advice.
