    Maurice, you knocked this one out of the park. Todd talking about his family was amazing, to be able to tell what his sister went through. I really loved this. God bless him and Catherine. God bless you and your family Maurice too. 💙💕

    I can’t wait for part two. This is a fabulous episode. How Todd managed to turn out so “normal” and together with the life he had is remarkable. Nice to see Catherine so happy.

    I loved what Todd said about Carrie being one of the first ones to bring mental illness out of the shadows. I feel the same way about rape and sexual assault. We HAVE to open up and take the shame out of it. It's really the only way to heal people. And Catherine's right, not everyone has access to therapy or has insurance. So having podcasts, writing books, speaking with audiences, however you can get it out there is so very important! And having the support of your loved ones also...there is no greater love IMO than holding space for someone suffering, no matter what the trauma is.

You sometimes have to be tough but I agree love, patience, and understanding is key. I am so looking forward to part two. Terrific job! I just hate they go by so quickly. No shame when dealing with mental illness! God bless you and yours always!

    This was interesting to hear Todd's stories about his sister Carrie Fisher and I hope that in Part 2 of next Sunday's episode with Todd & Catherine that Catherine shares some of her stories about when she played Courtney Marshall on the cancelled soap Texas in the early '80's and when she worked with Kin Shriner who played Jeb Hampton on Texas in those early days of her soap career. Great episode, Maurice.

I’m the calm one while my brothers were addicts so I know it’s hard to understand why when we were raised by the same parents. People did assume I was must have addictions too.

    Funnily enough, I was thinking recently about how there should be support groups for mental health. It really is a shame that so many of us can't get the help we need, and having a group of people to talk to who are going through the same things you are would make such a difference. As you know, many of us feel alone, but the more we talk about it, the more we realize we're all in this together. Thank you again, Maurice.

I agree it’s okay to agree admit about mental illness. I know how it is about depression. And with my MS my memories aren’t that good too good anymore. I can’t wait to see it part 2 Maurice!!!

  • @josephannemariecaristi6711

    What Todd said about tough love resonates with me. I don't think "tough love" is really love at all! Like he says, protect yourself, but kicking your kid out just because they are an addict.....how does that help them? With my kids, I practiced attachment parenting from day one. I never let them "cry it out". That gave them a secure foundation for life. They have always known that both parents were there for them unconditionally, like Todd is describing how Debbie was there for Carrie unconditionally. I cannot wait for Part 2!!

BTW, Maurice while I don't really watch soaps anymore I do come back every few years just to see the veterans, especially you. Sonny can be hard to take at times but you give him depth. I commend you for this yt channel as you make mental health issues less scary and you show how none of us are immune to the experience whether directly or indirectly. Keep up the good work.

    @betsybabf748 2 роки тому +1

    I think the difference between 'tough love' and helping is responsibility. It seems Carrie took ownership of her actions, knowing and owning her condition and responsibility even through struggles. Tough love is often seen or performed as abandoning through need, but it is more successfully done just given them the responsibility for their lives, which is also power. The addicts I've seen die young are the ones who never saw a reason to work towards health because it worked for them and others gave them excuses not to own the responsibility of their lives or see it was that severe of a problem. The "nothing's your fault" attitude equals "It's not in your control". If they don't feel the have the power to be responsible for and in control the choices, how can they have the power to fight the biggest fight of their lives? Part of responsibility and ownership is being in control and having the power in one's life, which we all need to better any life situation.

    I was wrongly medicated & attempted suicide 9 times in 3 years (& other times before/after then)…minutes from death multiple times. When I was on this wrong medicine & at my lowest I wrote some awesome poetry, as well deep journaling. I miss being able to write soo deeply & freely, yet I stay scared to death I’ll go back to “that dark place again”…even though I’m on a better medication now.
    There are programs separate from AA. Celebrate Recovery is very well known. It’s in a way based on AA. Yes, it’s biblically based, but it’s not a pushy program for religion at all. Celebrate Recovery was extremely helpful for me.
    There are other similar to AA as well, I was briefly part of a SLAA group. It’s embarrassing, but because of all the abuse I went through when younger I acted out a lot.
