Anyone heard of this coaching service for parents
I don't even know how to do this kind of thing, posting on here. My friend told me to try reddit so here I am.
My daughter has bipolar disorder. I won't get into all of it but it has been one of the hardest things I've ever dealt with and I've dealt with a lot. I work long shifts, I come home tired, and then I'm right back on edge wondering what kind of night it's gonna be. Is she okay. Did she take her meds. Is she sleeping. I haven't had a real night's sleep in I don't know how long. I'm 54. I'm not one to ask for help. But I'm telling you I am running on fumes. My husband and I barely talk because this has taken over everything. I feel guilty that this is happening to my family. My younger two are 18 and 19, they don't say much but I am worry about them too. They have gotten into so many nonsense fight with her, they are good kids but are acting out. And I don't say any of this to anybody because what are they gonna say about me and my family.
I was looking around online and I found this page Held & Seen Coaching. From what I can tell it's run by a woman named Yoyce Galvan who has a masters in psychology and has been working in mental health for years, but she looks young like in her 30s. What would she knows about my situation? But, i liked that she focus on the family not the person with the diagnosis and I kinda feel like someone finally understood what this is like. or maybe i am just looking for someone to understand me. I don't know anything about coaching, never done anything like this, and I don't want to waste money on something that isn't real. Has anybody used this service? Is it worth it? Did it actually help you? What was it like? Just looking for honest opinions from people who've been through something like this. Thanks.
