    • About Me

      My oldest son, Nick, is one of my favorite people I've ever met. He has always been kind, patient, caring, and a deep thinker. He has also had depression and social anxiety since age 7-8. At age 14 1/2, he began experiencing symptoms of psychoses (paranoia, hallucinations, voices, and thought he had a second personality.) His mood began to swing up and down and he became easily agitated. After 2 hospitalizations, we have been told that he has major depressive disorder with psychotic features and social anxiety. My heart is broken and I just want my sweet boy back.
