we have depression in my family tree..... and it's just not acknowledged by most of them. So to have your 30yrs experience is a blessing for your daughter really, as she has someone so close to her that really does understand what she is going through....don't blame yourself though.... it's not your fault.... it just happens. Your going to be there for her at a very critical time of her self discovery and healing process....

hopefully the psychiatric field has progressed a lot since then in treating this disease, and your daughters symptoms can be better managed without being comatose from the medications. Just know how she does not have to suffer alone because your with her to help her understand what she's feeling...and so many here don't have that....so it's going to be okay.....a rough road but your with her.

So sorry to hear of the ilness that has been passed onto yr family. However specialists may be able to find a cure in the future where younger members of yr family may benefit. And as u say u can pass yr experience to them. I send hugs to you.
