Too many families think they can cure depression and keep it in the clan. It doesn’t work that way. You cannot simply treat the kid, but not the toxic environment he lives in. Since I am autistic, I get to connect the kid to his peers and we do what we have to do. Mainly, it’s a nesting, and waiting for the dam to break. Most kids will work through this and come out of it alive. Some kids will die. Covid killed more people than anyone knows.
