Manage episode 356934819 series 3454302
With so many children of all ages suffering from anxiety, depression and other mental illnesses, the impact this has on parents often goes unnoticed. As today's guest says, "No one thinks to bring casseroles when someone's child is suffering from a mental illness." In this wise but raw discussion, we speak openly about the vital, scary, lonely and often exhausting role parents have in their child's recovery/management of a mental illness.
