Cross Posted Link to Support Thread for my wife with mental illness

[Land Shark]

Although I tried to get her some help and we even had a brain MRI scheduled for a few days later, a particularly poignant tragedy occurred. See http://www.democraticunderground.com/1002403469

3. What a nightmare!

Knowing what it's like to not be in control of your actions...

It's hard to describe how frightening It is to be thinking of situations like this. What gets me the most is how looked down upon you are when your disadvantage is revealed. Accusing other people of being crazy, or damning you for illusions. That's not how you treat people.

6. Yes, tho my daughter stands out in great contrast to that nightmare

Was subjectively hoping that people would see HER the most, especially with the contrast to all the challenges. Some did. But I do understand how the challenges, in their sum, are quite a load and thus it's natural to have some focus on that.

Thanks for your reply!

I'm so glad you posted the story to DU. Let's see how we do.

7. i wish you healing paul.

every member of your family.
your wife should have a sleep study. if it is sleep walking, it will be evident. they really should be done routinely in psyche hospitals.

but above all, healing for you all.
