"How Do I Know My Parent Is Mentally Unstable?" Signs & Patterns | Psychotherapy Crash Course
152#trauma #adultchildren #unhealthyparent
We never expect our parent to have mental health problems, especially delusions or hallucinations.
It just doesn't fit our imagination and our expectations of what a parent would be like.
Children often hold a very high view of their parent(s) and to eventually find out that this same parent is unstable is very traumatic.
Your safety and your self-identity is often built around who your parent is. And your lifestyle is often influenced by the stability or instability of your parent. When a parent is unstable, life changes and so does your lifestyle, safety, and security.
When a parent has (or both parents have) delusions and hallucinations or displays psychotic behaviors, the trauma can worsen.
In today's video, I will be discussing and differentiating delusions and hallucinations.
