was 15 he asked to be taken off the Lithium, his parents thought it could work if he gradually came off the medication. Little by little they reduced his dosage with the approval of his therapist, at first he seemed to be doing okay, but then his symptoms began to worsen quickly. He didn't want to go out as much anymore, he was behaving differently and his parents decided it'd be best if he went back on the full dosage.

Dana Perry was very caring towards her son and tried everything she
