Hi CS,
Thanks for your honesty & congrats for your longtime sustained success!
I have been getting one on one through hubby's Employee Assistance Plan. You get six sessions for one situation, then usually by then, something else has come up & after a week or so, I'll call back for help with dealing with that. If you're quite specific in what you say, they accept that different situations can cause the family distress.
I did get a psychiatrist, but he only will see me about every 2 or 3 months & he is nice, but doesn't really do a heck of a lot of good. My old Psych retired. I am SO sorry 'cuz she was great. This guy is head of the local hospital psych dept.
I wish I could get someone who I can just go to ongoing, but it's so expensive.
I'm trying to be aware of how I'm doing. And I am trying to take good care of myself. Today I bought a few flowers to plant in my garden. That's a really nurturing thing for me.
Don't worry CS, I know you're coming from a loving caring place & I hear what you're saying.
I appreciate your support. It means a lot to me to be able to having people care enough to read my posts & reply. Helps be cope.
I'm sorry that you're in the situation to have a family member going through traumatic stuff also.
How are you doing? Anything interesting happening in your life? Was it you who was involved in beach cleanup? My memory is BAD...
I send you lots of hugs, Kath
