What To Do When Failure To Launch Anxiety Victim Refuses To Get Help

By Martha Patterson


It is one thing to hit adulthood years yet another to act like one. Some only have adult bodies to show. Surprisingly, the person you are accusing of failure to launch anxiety is not even aware that he has a problem. Guardians and parents have no idea how to deal with these cases. Here are tips that will help you deal with such children and change their lives in the process.

Work on your situation before turning to your son. Children take cues from their parents. If parents live an orderly life, they will be compelled to also put theirs in order. Parents with untidy houses cannot convince their sons to tidy their own. Focus on your mental health and social skills in order to instill the same on your children. It is chaotic to have more than one person with a mental health issue in the house.

Remember that you are dealing with a young adult and not full adult. You could be in your 40s or 50s. You are dealing with a person in his late 20s and 30s. Do not expect the person to act like an adult of your age. Accept a bit of teenage behavior because the son is in transition.

Talk to your child and try to understand his situation. Most children might not be in a hurry because they can still eat and sleep. They are not even conscious of their delayed milestones or being left behind by peers. By talking to them, you understand their approach and dilemma. You can help them overcome the challenges they are facing and create a better life.

Stop being too accommodating. Parents will always be parents. They take care of their children in all circumstances. However, this has been cited as one of the problems. Realize that your son with a beard is now an adult. Demand that he behaves like one without any excuse. Stop tracking his appointments with the doctor or cleaning his room. Such accommodating only delays his departure from your nest.

Be gradual in your approach. There are many issues that FTL persons have. They lack motivation, are less tolerant to distress, expect too much from people but do not reciprocate and will not make the bed, among others. It is easier to deal with one at a time than attempt to force all of them. You can monitor progress by handling one at a time and end up with an adult over time. Taking too much at a go is stressing and disappointing.

Keep the person away from destructive life. Most persons with FTL anxiety are drawn to substance abuse as they seek to occupy their time and seek pleasure. If allowed to fall into the pit of substance abuse, you will complicate the situation. Remember that this person is sometimes acting unconsciously. The company he keeps is important but never force a person into a career he is not passionate about.

Get help from professionals as soon as you realize that there is a problem. Early and quick interventions make it easier to get positive results. There are localized programs that are professionally designed and will help you achieve desired results. The program you choose should be customized to deliver value for money through quality lifestyle.
