Lucie,
Enmeshed is what I call it (perhaps improperly). I know I'm tangling my feelings with his. Or perhaps more like that I can't see him through all that tangle. Your post puts into words lots: the guilt, anxiety, sense that something needs to work better, but how.
At this point, how would I even handle a child hospitilized for depression? That's quite an experience to have gone through. I'm glad you and your family came through it for the better.
I do over-identify with my son. Doesn't feel good at all. I don't know how to stop! I want to, though. Thanks for the support.
MDD currently controlled. C-ptsd and comorbid health concerns. Chronic fatigue.
