Hi Juli, I know it must've taken a lot to share your story with us so I'll share a little bit of mine. I grew up with two alcoholic parents, who thankfully are now sober and although our situations are very different some of the feelings are the same. Like you I had to be the strong one, I was the one who kept arguments from getting out of hand, who was always on the alert , sometimes I felt like I was the only thing keeping my familly together. It was exhausting, I was crumbling on the inside but I never allowed myself to let it show. I was always pretending, To keep people from finding out what was happening behind close doors, and to protect my little sister as much as possible. Putting on a mask became normal, I completely shut down my emotions and towards the end it's like I had become numb to it all. I never told anyone until it was over, not even my closest friends whom I trust with my life, I just could not tell them. So I appreciate you trusting us with your story, and I commend you for the way you are handling the situation, I hope things get better for your family soon.

I am happy that you made this video rather than write it all down. It's good for people to listen to as it is relatable and you handled the situation very well. It's often hard to communicate to someone that you have depression or anxiety or similar mentalities because you believe that no one will take you seriously, people think you're being dramatic and just doing it for attention, but it's a very real thing that can be hard to admit. Speaking for myself, if I ever need to I will refer to this video in the future because it's really nice to hear that someone is willing to be there for those who need help and not just blow them off. You seem to have a lot of patience and understand situations like these and I appreciate that. Thank you for doing this video, Juli and hope your mom will get into a better situation as it's definitely a difficult thing to deal with.

The situation it's not the same but the feeling is. I always have to smile and pretend like I am completly fine because If I break my son freaks out, he doesn't like when I cry, so I smile even when I feel like everything is falling apart inside of me. I have to be strong for them but thank you for letting me be me and for never judge me. I'm really sorry about your godmother, mine passed away 2 years ago and I miss her like crazy. I promise it will get better. Much love to your family!

Yes Carine, Mental illness it's something ppl sometimes don't take too serious because of the stigma around it, which makes the condition even harder. Even my mom hates going to he psychiatric and I'm always pushing her to do it because it's important. I hope this time she understands how important it is and how scare we were of losing her, I hope I'm doing everything right and I'm helping her. Thank you for your kind message.

JuliDG

Thank you Maria. Yeah it takes a lot from everyone to take care of someone with mental illness but I'm happy I can help my mom, she means everything to me and I hope I'm doing a good job at helping her.

JuliDG

Hi Juli!! I feel for you. I just lost my god mother, I know it's not the same thing but he drains me too, I'm not in the right state of mine but I have to be strong because I have 3 young childrens (6 years and half, 3 years and 4 months) and to not show anything and smile takes a lot!! I really feel for you so much and I pray for your mum. I'm sure she will get better soon. Just take things slow, you need to take care of you. You are a wonderful person, an amazing mum and such caring daughter. Your mum must be really really proud!! Much love Juli, it will get better soon

I'm glad everything is getting better! I went through this with my sister, we shared the same room and I remember staying up at night to make sure she would not do anything. Now I study in Germany and my whole family is still in Brazil and the hardest thing is to stay away from them when any of these episodes happen. Give support, be by her side and show her that everything will be fine and gradually help her to go back to routine is the best thing the family can do, many people think it's silly, but the psychiatric doctor is extremely important at these times. Mental illness, just like any other disease, needs medication. Take the time you need to be with your mother, you are a very strong person and I put you guys in my prayers, we are here for you!

oh Juli! I feel ya SO MUCH. mental illness is exhausting for the people living through it as well as the people around them. so please take your time-out whenever you need it, breathe, meditate, sleep - do whatever gives your mind some peace and be proud. you're taking care of your family and you should be proud of that! :)

Jenny
