Fulfilling the multiple obligations of a parent is especially challenging if the parent is also experiencing symptoms of a mental health condition. This is known as symptomatic parenting, and the surrounding issues and possible remedies can be life-changing within a family. Helen and Valerie examine this sensitive, far-reaching subject from two points of view: the perspective of the symptomatic parent, and that of the adult child of a symptomatic parent. Join our hosts as they investigate and describe coping skills, self-care methods, and treatment options for parent and adult child as they navigate this intense dynamic.
