MO You asked · Wed Aug 5, 2015 Hi I want to know about my mother who is 55 yrs old. She is very depressed after my father s death. My father had died suddenly due to 3rd heart attack 6 months before. So she always think about him. She always guess the reasons that causes death to my dad. We try to make her understand that death is ultimate end of life or etc but she understands for sometime and become normal for sometime then again she keeps thinking the same especially when she is alone. She can able to sleep properly. She has problem of high bp and diabetes. Doctor has prescribed her for sleeping pills and anxiety pills she has consumed for 3or 4 months but she is not able to come back in normal life. She can t be alone at home. Sometime she cries very much and take stress to that extent which will affect her health like high bp or high sugar. I want to know how can I make my mom understand and relieve from stress or sleeping pill is harmful for her. Please advise.
