I think Tristan has mentioned in his thread that several people all have similar and at the same time differing opinions of what his wife is dealing with in terms of these mental health issues - they haven't just dealt with one person.
It's the symptom of the society we live in, pop this pill, let me know if it works, speak to someone else, get a different pill, same advice, so on & so forth.
Its not that she has moved from one psych to another. Its that the MC thought one diagnosis and the psych concluded another. But both agree on the same treatment, so I guess its not a big deal. But I am interested in what others that have been close to these disorders believe, because neither one seem to fit her exactly. My IC (who was our MC) said that he has often seen people in her situation confused and then adds ", but she takes it to a whole new level."
She told me last night that she is reading "True Love: A Practice for Awakening the Heart" by Thich Nhat Hanh and that I should read it as well. I will probably pick up a copy when I get a chance. Has anyone read it?
So was I wrong to talk to her last night for a half hour? She was hurting in the beginning and seemed to be in a better mood by the time we finished. It was nice to connect with her. Am I handing her too much cake or just showing compassion?
