    • Close Breakups & Divorce

      I've been divorced close to 5 years after being married 20 years. I've worked hard to get my life and myself "back in order" and I thought this would be a good place to share ideas, single-parenting advice, etc.

      Treatments

      My ex didn't stick with it.

    • Close Single Parenting

      I am the single parent of a 17-year-old son. He was adopted at birth and is having typical teenage problems as well as rejection feelings from his father who has been hardly involved since he and I divorced almost 5 years ago.

    • Open Parenting Teenagers (12-18)

      My son is 17 and has had a rough year, getting in and out of trouble. Poor grades, started smoking occasionally, disrespectful and now says he is an atheist.

      Treatments

      Patience Somewhat Helpful
      But my patience is wearing thin.
      Psychotherapy Not Working
      He refuses to work on his issues.
    • Open Lupus

      My son, who will be 18 in June, was diagnosed with lupus in 2002. It severely damaged his kidneys. He went into remission but now it seems it is flaring up and bothering his joints. I think it's due to him not faithfully taking his meds.

      Treatments

      Cellcept Working / Worked
      has worked well
      Medrol Working / Worked
      had 6 treatments in IV right after diagnosis
      Plaquenil Working / Worked
      has really helped
      Prednisone Working / Worked
      He was on it for a couple of years after his diagnosis and it helped but of course he gained weight on it
