[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Therapists are fine but I think families who live with similar situations have real solutions, perhaps? When I talk to my therapist or when my DD talks to hers, we both come away with, "Person is great but actually has no clue what we live with on a day to day, hour to hour basis. No clue." [/quote] This was my experience with therapists at the beginning. PPs suggesting support groups for parents/teens with your daughter's condition (or a similar enough one) have a great idea. Once I was more in the swing of things, therapy was more useful. Also, find a really good therapist. They don't have to understand exactly what you're going through, they just have to be well trained at helping you through difficult things. I could say "I would like to deal with my anxiety about ____." which is something a therapist would know how to deal with, even if they have no real idea what ____ is. [/quote]
