Teen refusing medication

this is sort of a vent but I have to add --how incredibly frustrating it is when people say "you should (blank)" or "if it were me I'd just (blank) - it seems like everyone -doctors, therapists, friends, relatives, etc have lots of suggestions but unless they can give you some suggestions that have concrete proven results what they say is nothing but a bunch of babble and I have often felt like screaming " don't waste my time with your nonsense- give me something I can hold on to, something that I can actually use - not just a bunch of useless words that mean nothing. I guess that's why I appreciate having this site - because I know that when I post stuff like what I just did that there are other people here who know exactly what I am talking about and feeling because they've been there too . I hope it helps you too to know that when people give you an opinion you can trust that whatever that opinion- is it is drawn from their true life personal experience not some textbook answer
