Hi Happier,

It is a heartbreaking distress to see the person we love so unhappy and in so much pain. And it feels like no one can help. It is an isolating situation.

As a carer I have come to terms with difficult situations myself. The grief we feel is always there I believe and we can still find happiness I also believe.

In our own journey we have much to learn. When I began to understand the concept of Radical Acceptance I was able to begin to turn my pain around. And it is an ongoing process too.

There have been techniques and learning and understandings that have guided my journey. Too many to explore here. Radical Acceptance is a core concept for me though.

I hope this is of help.
