Recently I had a breakdown. I am bipolar with anxiety disorder. I was in a psychiatric hospital for a week at the beginning of the month and soon I will go back to work. (I am lucky enough to work from home while I get back on my feet).
My daughter and I have been really close for most of her life, her father died when she was 2 and its been the two of us ever since. Lately, she is just awful to me. She is 19 and thinks she knows everything but she makes me feel terrible about my illness, she doesn't say anything but its how she acts. She barely spends time with me and she has to give me my meds because I wanted to overdose a few weeks ago and she acts like its a burden. I have to have my sister help with dispensing my meds because my daughter will go out and not give them to me.
She is a good kid, she goes to work and school. but i am just so disappointed at how she has acted in my most recent episode.
has anyone else experienced this?
