      Treatments

      Crying Somewhat Helpful
      i still do cry. the grief comes in spurts. i tried not to let it control me. I cry as needed.
      Prayer Working / Worked
      prayer is always helpful. there is only one place we can find peace.
      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      I checked myself into a hospital after Thomas died. I know I need more help some of the time. not sure where to look.
      Writing Working / Worked
      it helps me get it out. some times there is no one to talk to. when you put it down on paper it can become real and you can somewhat understand it.
    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      i have a 17 son that is been tormented by this disorder or something like for years. i have tried to get help for him. never have been rich or good insurance so the help was very limited. he is now in the junvinille system. it is a shame when your child has to be locked up to get the help he needs.
