He left on Tuesday for basic training and she is mourning like he is dead.
She can't go into his room at all, no food looks appealing to her, little things can set her off into a panic attack again and her doctor has put her on prozac. I know he's her baby but he's my baby too and he will be back and we will see him in 2 months. I think she may be overreacting How can I help her? |

Comfort her and let her know that you are there with her physically and mentally. Let her know that you miss him also and that you are waiting for him to return; keep her company and perhaps she can do the same for you. Mothers are rather cautious and worried about their children constantly so not seeing him for two months for basic training could put tremendous stress and panic on her judging from the prozac that her doctor put her on. Tell her that her son will be fine and that in two months, both you and her will be able to see him again. Best of luck.

Well I think she's feeling like her last baby has left the nest forever since her second youngest son just got married a couple weeks ago. But I'm quite sure my boyfriend is going to still live with her for a while when he gets back. And even if we do get married right away, we're planning on staying in this town near her... I just don't know how to assure her of that without going all therapist on her.
