It sounds like you are on the right track. One of the things I didn't mention, but seems worth mentioning, is that the lessons you learn through dealing with this can often result in being able to deal with things in the future. As an example, my D is now 19 and suffering pretty badly with depression/anxiety issues. This is not an easy thing to see your child go through and can be immensely frustrating when it seems as though they are "lazy" and want to do nothing (but in fact its the depression). My H has realized the type of patience it takes to deal with her and he has remarked several times that he doesn't know how I managed to be so patient with him, but that it meant so much to him and he's trying to do the same for her. And in a strange way, knowing that he went through dark times and came out the other end gives me hope for my D. It's not been easy for her but I have more hope than I might otherwise have without this unfortunate, but ultimately immensely educational experience.
