You have my prayers.

The hard truth is that we can’t let a sinking family member take us down with them. We can’t let ourselves become so sad and discouraged ourselves that we can’t parent anymore, or enjoy life, or keep our faith.

Your daughter needs to see you still love life, and her, and that you intend to go on. She deserves a life that is kept intact as much as possible. Let her see you love your husband and are praying for him, but that you have accepted that you can’t help him until he wants help. Prayer is so powerful; it is the best thing you two can do for him.

Just my 2 cents from a wealth of experience. I’ll be thinking of you and praying for you two also.

How sad and how frightening for you. Stay close to your daughter: it’s you and her for now. Stay close also to sympathetic family if you have them (physically close, if possible). You are so in my prayers.{hug}

My prayers for all of you, we have a similar situation with more people involved in my family and sometimes I think it will never end.

Praying for you.
Make sure someone where you live now, knows the situation. Perhaps clergy, local mental health office, physician.
You may find comfort knowing that as you talk to one, there will be more to help.
Bless you mouse1 and daughter.
