Suicidal ideation at 7 years old is not normal kid behavior, neither is sudden and unprecedented paralyzing anxiety over the prospect of ordinary things like going to a friend's birthday party or trying a new playground.

Me and my mom are on identical doses of Prozac to treat very similar symptoms.

We consulted with a child therapist, a pediatrician, and a psychiatrist.

You are shockingly patient and nice to these people who are going out of their way to be judgmental jerks.

Kudos to you; you're inspiring me to find more grace in my life, but don't feel obligated to respond to these people who are trying only to bring people down.

> You are shockingly patient

It’s the Prozac, obviously /s

It really does take a lot to be able to deal with all the comments they’re getting, and I know from my own experience that once you’re living a life of both seeing and experiencing struggles with mental health, it becomes something you adapt to rather quickly.
