I'm starting to calm down a little.I fear that even though the meds may slow down her cycling, the boyfriend she desires to see and confide in may be very harmful to her well being and undo the therapy. She does not and has not thought clearly about her choices...it will take a lot of therapy and hopefully the "common sense" part of the therapy (the enlightenment) will straighten her out Hi, Thank you for your generous reply...
or at least put her on the correct thinking path. The meds can certainly help, but she's going to need to have some teachings in the ways of wiser guides, her therapists...we only hope she will follow the maps and charts to well being. G-d only knows why our kids don’t want to listen to us…all the kids hear is “yadda, yadda, yadda”. We are all going to a family therapist...I enjoy it. My dad past away just when we started to really know each other and talk….that was back in 1979. I wish we would have talked a lot more.I have talked to her today earlier...I told her I would call her back.... She started to panic when I did not call before 8PM.... My car sat a PEP Boys for a long time to get the tire fixed. She called me about the time I walked in. She sounded scared, but after awhile relieved that we could speak...especially about her coming home on Wednesday.
There is danger is this: The first thing she wants to do is go out and with with her boyfriend.
He is dangerous because he has no common sense...and agrees with our daughter even on the irrational thinking. I want him to stay away.
My wife will have to take off from work to stay with Brit....protect her from this fellow. I wish he had more of a brain...and could actually help her, instead of agreeing with her every whim or opinion. He is quite a wimp.... Although he cares for her like a puppy. I was once 17-18 and remember many loves that went through me and the hurt in my heart and my trembling body when I was apart from my object of my desire and lust. Do you remember such feelings? from youthful days?
I really can't discuss the extent of their relationship or how deep their desire/love goes.
All I know is they were going to take a break away from each other (the sex) during this summer...when she became so ill, she was then hospitalized.Correct me if I'm wrong...do we let her talk to her boyfriend? She has lost many of her old friends because of this fellow and the way he and she can't be separate.
Our doctors, of course, will advise us and advise Brit. But these two are addicted to each other. The boyfriend is very unstable, and has his own parents worried about him when he get depressed.
Whew-we...I've said a bunch...
Best regards,
Terry
