Its common for caregivers to attend counseling and take anxiety meds to help deal with the horrors of fighting such a horrific disease. I cant imagine how difficult it is to watch someone you love suffer. Im sure it must make you feel helpless which is not a good feeling. We are here not just for the OC patient, we are here to help caregivers too.
Wishing you all the very best with everything.
