I'm glad she didn't push that on you... I would have wanted to get out of daughter's field of vision also, it's not pathetic at all. There's still a lot of shame and stigma around getting any kind of mental health help. I know at one point, one of my Ts introduced me to her husband. I had a brief "heart-attack" before she managed to spit out that he was her business manager and would be the one doing the billing and insurance correspondence... I still wanted to melt away at that point.
