[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 525919, member: 13542"] Hi Rob, welcome. I'm sorry for what you are going through. I understand, I have a daughter who is very similar. I think therapy will help a lot. Also, there is an organization called NAMI, which here in CA. has wonderful resources not only for you and your wife as family members to get support, but here they have job training, counseling, just about every possible support for anyone with mental illness. They have Social Workers who work with families to help them in many of the areas you are concerned about. I found solace going there. I also joined a support group lead by a therapist. I got LOTS of support because it is such a tough road, and professionals can really support you in ways you need to be supported. There is a lot to learn which most of us didn't realize we would have to learn about, but there are also resources which will help you. My daughter is also my only child. I understand your struggles. I wish you peace along the way and guidance to all the people who will assist you and your family. If it feels right, keep posting here, it helps. [/QUOTE]
