The start of the Weekend

My son and I were talking this morning. Our conversation was in regards to his day treatment program, meds, thereapy and such. As we eating breakfast at Burger King, my son said "Mom the meds they have me on now keep me calm, but I still have a lot of moods swings. What a beak through. This was the first time in a long time he acknowledged his mood disorder. So we both deceided to conduct a mood tracker, in which we can tract how often his mood changes, we are not scienctist, but it will help in the long run with the coping skills he is working on in treatment. I was happy he trusted me enough to share his feelings which is hard for a teenager to do. I beleave if you keep constant communiation and non judgemental comments your child is more apt to talk with you as supposed to just hearing your lectures.
