MyPTSD Pro
I am entering family counseling with my husband and 2 boys (ages 5 and 8). My husband and I went to the first introductory session today. The subject came up as to what to tell my children about what has been going on with me because I have had frequent hospitalizations due to PTSD and DID (dissociative identity disorder). The therapist was talking about the need for kids to know the truth. Does anyone have any recommendations about how much to tell children and how to tell them?
