I've been dealing with multiple phone calls from my Dad, who is in poor physical health, but also severely depressed and very anxious. He's calling every couple hours, panicking and crying. I gave him the phone number to a good therapist and told him to call his psychiatrist. I want to help, but i'm finding it exhausting. Plus i'm kind of resentful because he wasn't in my life when i was growing up, but now he's 70 and expects me to look after him. I will look after him, but it's challenging. My sister won't even take his calls. I'm screening the calls, but i'll call him back once per day. I need to keep my boundaries, because i can't fix this. I really hope his pdoc can do something. And i'm terrified that i'm going become like this in the future. Mental illness really sucks.
