In Part Two of the series Family Dynamics in a Psychiatric Crisis, Valerie and Helen have a frank, candid conversation with Valerie’s sister and husband, who were the principal

caregivers during her severe mental illnesses and behaviors.

The result is Caregivers Talk Turkey to Caregivers, where they explain the knowledge, relationships, coping skills, and self-care that allowed them to persevere through the long, dark years until Valerie’s full recovery.

What sustained, inspired and comforted them throughout the process are a revelation for listeners who are involved in the care and treatment of a family member with mental health

challenges. Their examples of supporting the young children involved are especially insightful and poignant. This episode makes for an invaluable listening experience for family members everywhere.
