[quote=Anonymous]Mental illness runs in my family and the best advice I can offer for the your family: it’s your issue, not theirs. If you have a mental health problem it is yours, not your children’s, not your spouse’s, not society’s. That means you have to do whatever is necessary (take your medication, do your work) to take ownership of yourself and your mind. It is awesome if you have loved ones who accommodate you and help, but at the end of the day, it’s your job to make sure you are the best parent and spouse and person you can be.[/quote]
