[quote=Anonymous]This is an excellent topic of discussion for your therapist. I am being treated for metastatic cancer and I had to work through my husband’s tendency to shut down my worries and constantly exhort me to “think positively and don’t give up!” Of course he was/is terrified that I am going to die and needs me to fight, but it felt like I couldn’t express myself. We worked through this with my therapist, who gave us the right language to communicate better. In the case of your friends, I imagine they are looking at the long game in which you WILL be okay and that your childrens’ lives will be so much better when their home situations is less chaotic and safer. But it will be hard and good friends will be there to help. Good luck to you. [/quote]
