My son (single father) has been taking meds for depression for about two years, (Welbutrin and Zoloft) and I was really worried, right after treatment ended (12/19). He had stopped his weekly counseling sessions with two different therapists and it was only after I tried several different approaches that he decided to go back to the therapy i.e.
