My family is falling apart :(
in Psychology & Therapy ·
I know how it goes—older folks can be incredibly stubborn when it comes to actually seeing a doctor, and if you’re specifically talking about the condition I mentioned, getting them through the door feels like trying to move a mountain. It becomes a near-impossible mission. But honestly, you just have to stay persistent and maybe get a little creative with your approach. One thing that might help is heading over to their primary care physician on your own first; just sit down with them, explain the whole situation, and see if you can coordinate a plan to get those specific tests scheduled. At least then you won't be left guessing, and you'll finally know exactly what kind of fight you're actually in.
