Daughter is being released from hospital.

Hi, my daughter 25 was hospitalized for anxiety and depression and will be getting out in a few days. She has a treatment plan to see her Psychologist (who does her therapy )twice a week and a social worker once a week. I'm so scared, how can I support her. She does not want to stay with me but go back to her home about an hour away.

Shoot her a text or give her a call each day if she wants it. Tell her you are there but do not be overbearing. Sometimes overbearing can create more stress which is not good. I bet she knows that you love her and want to help, but know that this is something she needs to fight and you don't want to cause more stress

Easier said than done. I just want to take her in my arms and try to make it better, but your words confirm what I kinda knew. Thank you

I know... My mom is the same way. I know she wants to help but I have to tell her to take a step back because she isn't helping. I love her to death but it is hard to overcome stress that she has caused with her trying to help resolve the stress that she caused which causes more stress... If that makes any sense xD. I'm sure your daughter is appreciative and will be okay with a text everyday (something simple like morning I love you or night love you) and a phone call now and then
