I've been following the same blog and having the same feelings. This is my first time here, and something sent me here today. I not only work with mentally ill clients, I have a stepson with mental illness. Yes, he is definitely in the manic stage. I've wanted to post there, but you know, he doesn't want to hear it so I've been holding it in....and really being upset over those who congratulate him on his every move...when it is so obvious what is going on. Why, the other day, he mentioned a certain type of beer he drinks because of its higher alcohol content, and no one picked up on it. I understand they mean well, but mental illness and alcoholism are both illnesses...and I just don't believe that going along with everything he says is in his best interest, but as you say, we have no control. I feel bad the way the poor dad is being badmouthed by everyone when it's obvious he has always been there for his son; otherwise, he'd be in some state hospital. <br /><br />Sorry for the rant here on your blog. Not fair to you. Just that I have been holding this in for so long. So sorry, Beth. It's a relief to find someone who is not yessing him and telling him how good he is doing.<br />Marymxtodis123https://www.blogger.com/profile/13583200601379394225noreply@blogger.com
