[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 338366, member: 3444"] Sadly, I think this is the case with many, many of our families and it's all tied to the stigma of mental illnesss. For example, I KNOW my dad is crazy, I just don't know exactly what his diagnosis is. And I KNOW there are other unstable people on his side of the family. But no one ever talks about it openly. And as time goes by, the people who could reveal more to me are passing on, so we probably never will know for sure. Even in husband's family there is a lot of denial, covering up and minimizing of abnormal behaviors. All I can do is be honest and open with whomever will listen in our family in the hopes that it will help someone somewhere down the road. [/QUOTE]
