Kimmy, you are an angel, for the support you show him! Speaking personally, that can speak volumes. The quoted parts of your post below really caught my attention, and hit home!

It's sad that once I asked him, "Are you suicidal?" and his response was, "A better question is to ask me if I'm not. It's my out, my feel-good for a moment when I don't have answers."

He began suicidal ideation at a very young age and it's almost incorporated into him as a coping mechanism...to get through.

He does fully KNOW now that he's very loved. He didn't believe that before and that's where my focus stays when he's feeling badly.KD
Thank you for posting this, Kimmy! I'm so sorry he is having such a hard time, but glad to hear he is maintaining! I can really relate to this!
