[quote=Anonymous]I don't think some of the PPs understand anxiety and self-medicating. Your mother clearly is on the far end of the anxiety spectrum and age probably hasn't helped that. If she's on medication, it isn't effective or her self-medication with alcohol is impacting it efficacy or both. The use of alcohol like you describe certainly sounds like self-medicating. Also, as people get older, visits like you describe get more difficult. Add her anxiety/self-medication and it's a nutty mess. Like a PP, I advise you to limit your visits to what you can handle. I know it's tough but from a distance and the top of a mountain, I don't know how much more you can do. Hugs. [/quote]
