    This wasn’t my case, my parents were very well adjusted for the most part but it did happen to a former partner. It was usually accompanied by a deep silence and denial. Hope it gradually gets more normalized to at least talk about it; even if therapeutic alternatives may not be available, having support from friends and family is a huge improvement.

      My parents are in very old now, no change there. My sister says I can reach out any time but she never responds.

      I have started seeing a therapist which has been helpful in several ways, even if I skipped today’s appt.
