Posted a lot over xmas for support . My mum, 57, hasn’t been for a very long time but she’s now very very unwell (mental health) . I’m full time caring for her and studying at the same time .
The doctors are saying Mum needs to go into hospital for a couple of days for assessment, and she needs to start anti psychotic medication .
I’m scared, mum needs the help but I’m scared she’ll be upset at the thought of going into hospital, and she won’t be happy at all . She’s already very unhappy and I don’t want her to be even more frightened or worse, upset with me for allowing to happen .
I’ve got to start seeing a psychologist next week too, to run concurrently with mum’s help, which should help but I’m chewing through my lip with worry tonight. I don’t know how to best handle it all .
