Dd1 went through a period of poor mental health a few years ago- was really suffering with anxiety and saw a psychologist who really helped. This was such a difficult period and she needed lots of support. She is better now but still struggles socially. Things are however on the up and she is generally a happy, balanced young person. However, I really struggle with her mood swings and reacting to her. It’s as if I’m now on red alert all the time and want her to be happy all the time. I sometimes think I am too quick to ask if she’s ok if she’s not singing and dancing around the house (as she is 95% of the time). Last night she was upset about something but I didn’t have time to deal with it as I had to go out with dd2 and I dreaded going back home to deal but when I did she was happily eating her dinner and had spoken to a friend and was feeling much better. Just now I went into a room and she’s sat there quietly and looking sad- I just said ok? And she said yes- she obviously isn’t feeling 100 but instead of reacting I just smiled, told her I’d start making dinner and left. I felt guilty for just leaving her and am itching to go and check on her but I know she chats to me when she needs anything… just need reassurance that I’m doing the right thing! Does anyone else suffer from the need to make everything ok all the time?
