(7,140 posts)...when you are able to see through your tears, please take the time to research depression. You will find that a depressed brain is physically very different. All the love and care and right words won't/can't make a difference. There is a terrific program out of Stanford that is worth noting. It's called SAINT. People who have been depressed their entire lifetimes are cured after magnetic stimulation treatments. Please know that you did not cause your son's pain. If he were with you right now, I am convinced he would tell you that the one thing he was/is sure of is your love for him. Unfortunately, love does not conquer all, as much as we like to think it can.
