[quote=Anonymous]I really feel for you, op. My parents are also of the generation that doesn’t share outside the family Have you tried telling your mother that you are worried about her mental health and that you want to get help for her? Have you tried telling your dad that you’re worried about him? This stuff isn’t easy. My dad was in a long depression that I felt was being dealt with badly for a long time, and I even got his permission to let me speak to his psychiatrist, and nothing got better even after that. He used to sit basically catatonic on the couch watching TV. I’m here with my parents in crisis mode right now, doing work to get help, and whenever my mother wants to complain about this person or that person in a angry ranting way, I just tell her straight up that I do not have the ability to listen because I am exhausted and need to focus on positive things to keep me going and able to help.[/quote]
