For A Traumatised Friend


beatitude

Recommended Posts

I have a friend with trauma-related mental health problems (my former landlady) and things seem to be getting worse. I am worried that she is losing her grip on reality - some of the things she was saying in our last conversation were incoherent and seemed delusional, and she was very agitated. She is not getting medical help. She runs a guesthouse and i worry that her problems will soon get in the way of her business, if they haven't already: I took a friend to meet her (a possible paying guest) and he could tell at once that she wasn't well, and was very concerned. I don't know how to help, as I think she might be offended if anyone suggested that she see a doctor. I am going to hopefully talk to her daughter today (cautiously) to see what her family's feelings are. Please pray that I am discreet, don't poke my nose in where it's unwanted, and that above all this lady gets some proper help and comfort.
