We have a family from very old to very young. Each having strong issues they live with and I try to keep it all balanced while trying to keep myself focused and together while suffering with Bi-Polar, Depression, Anxiety and Panic Attacks. All a life time problem. We love each other but it is so difficult to get everyone to understand the feelings, needs, problems, issues; new and old; of each other. The adults are all set in their ways and sitting down talking doesn't work, each feel they are being personally attacked. I work full time during the day and work full time at home trying to raise happy children. Both suffer from severe emotional distress due to a bad experience associated with living about five years with their father and step-mother who was emotionally and physically abusive. I've been blessed to have them back with me for the last two years. I work hard everyday to hold us all together.
