Anxiety and depression

MY Ken
I am so sorry and kinda wondering why you didnt tell me this yesterday
I know you try to go at this alone hun BUT as yoiu know it is NOT easy
Anticipatory Anxiety is IMHO one of the worst to deal with
All the what if's and what for's and you know the spiel
YIOU have to sit down and tell your daughter JUST exactly what is going on tell her to please NOT interrupt you until you are done and have patience til you get it all out sweetie
Tell her she is more than able to ask questions later
Hospital right now would put you back and we know that dont we
This is bringing on all the anxiety right now and you dont need it
Would she perhaps talk to a second party about this??
I could not call last night but Cait said she talked to you
I was wiped 9 times to find a vein for IV......am so sick of it
Anyways am calling you tonight k my sweet man
Luvs ya so

Hello Ken,

I am Kitt and I don't believe we have met but I am so glad your back here and please stay with us. Let us help.

I have 2 grown adult children who are at opposite ends of the spectrum as far as understanding mental illnes.

I brought both of them to the therapist with me early in treatment so they could ask question and they got all their questions out.

The next week when I went back alone to therapy, my therapist said, what did I think about how my children's discussion with her had gone?

I said well my son got it but my daughter did not. My therapist said Bingo......your right on.

My daughter wanted the therapist to tell her how to help me with a "quick cure". What could she do to get me out of the house and back in the mainstream? You know as I do, there is no quick cure. It takes tons of work and babysteps. Some days are good and than like a boomerang you get struck with anticipatory anxiety. The what ifs?

My son understood and accepted the therapist explanations. Miles apart they were and both my children.

So I would see if your daughter could come with you to the therapist and let her have time to ask questions, and then if she doesn't get it, you keep on working with your therapist and accept that she just can't be the person you need to count on.

Use us, use your firends, use your therapist.

Please stay with us.................we are family.
