Hi Everyone,
I spoke to my Mum again today on the phone, and she still isn't getting any better. She is having a real hard time trying to go to sleep and then when she eventually gets to sleep, she is only sleeping a few hours. And then when she waking up she is having anxiety attacks, because of the thoughts she is having. And then while she is having an attack she is ringing me and crying. Mum has these thoughts which are causing her to have anxiety attacks. But these thoughts are going through her mind all day long and night. And for the last 3 nights she is having nightmares. The doctor has Mum on Lexapro and she is also taking something for her anxiety attacks. The doctor has referred Mum to a Physcriatrist but it is still another 1 week and a bit for my Mum to see the Physcriatrist. My Mum has been like this for a couple of months now, and I'm really worried about her, when my Mum rings me up and she is crying I'm trying to hold myself together and be strong so she knows she can talk to me, if I told her the truth and said to her that this is really affecting me, she would not tell me anything because the last thing she would want is for me to get worse with my anxiety. I spoke to my sister on the phone and told her that I think it is a good idea that she takes Mum to the hospital because I don't think Mum can handle this much longer, and she said No I am not taking her to the hospital she has only 1 week and bit to go, till she see's the Physcriatrist. Then my sister told my Mum that I'm trying to put her in the hospital, my Mum started having an attack and now she is really upset. I only wanted her to see someone at the hospital so she could get help. Now me and my sister are argueing, and my Mum thinks I'm trying to have her commited. I just think that it's still another 1 week and a bit for her to see someone and to me that's to long because she is just getting through each day as it is.
I have no surport and I just don't know what to do?
