This is a poignant, practical and accessible book aimed at the partners, parents, siblings and children of people who are suffering with their mental health.

• The most common mental health issues and how to navigate them.
• Getting real about your difficult feelings, from anger, irritation, powerlessness, fear, guilt, shame, resentment to wanting to leave.
• What to say and what not to say – how to use therapeutic tools and insights to overcome communication challenges.
• How to implement healthy boundaries, untangle from codependent relationships and recognize if you have a saviour complex.
• Making a crisis/emergency plan for if something goes wrong.

With practical advice from an expert psychotherapist featuring real stories from her clinical practice, as well as from her personal experience with loved ones, this book will help readers find the right balance between supporting their loved one and taking care of themselves.
