We all know the old adage - for better or worse, in sickness and health ...etc. etc. Yes - but mental illness? That was never in the remit - there had been absolutely no mention made of it whatsoever.
So whether it was their partner, child, or sibling I think most people on being told someone they were related to had a mental illness, would have an initial reaction of - "you've got what?"
We all have our own ways of dealing with such events. Regardless of what we as individuals might think, at times like these there is no 'right' or 'wrong' way. These are my thoughts on how it was for me as a mum. They are solely my own views which is why I make no mention of the other members of my family. My perceptions may not necessarily be the same as theirs and therefore it would be inappropriate for me to comment on them Whatever anyone thinks as to how I coped and their opnions on what actions I took - that is up to them. All I can say is that I did the best I could with the resources and experience at my disposal and with the best of intentins. Most people do not get lessons on being a carer for mental illness - I for one certainly didn't. I'm a pretty straightforward person - what you see is what you get - and this is what mental illness got when it came to call.
