[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 573742, member: 1967"] This is not a support group per se. It is a twelve week course for families of loved ones with a mental illness. We are supposed to learn about the mental illnesses as well as help available out there for our loved ones and ourselves. What was really hard to hear were the stories told by the elderly parents or siblings of 40 to 60 year old difficult children. husband and I looked at each other and said the same thing. That could be us for another thirty years. There were also quite a few parents of children like our daughter . . . all in the 24 - 28 year old range. Week 3 is all about mood disorders. That should be interesting. [/QUOTE]
