Yes we are human & we all stuff up at times.

I think the important thing to do is be open & willing to learn.
The sufferers have to re learn how to cope with things so I think if you expect them to go to docs etc to learn how to control symptoms then we as carers should too.
Don't be afraid to go & seek help for yourself, to learn new skills. You never know it might just help you & your loved ones to live in a better environment.
