- December 18, 2017
In this emotional episode of Dr. Phil, we meet two women who are struggling to cope with the loss of a loved one and the strain that loss has put on their respective relationships.
The first guest, Sarah, tearfully shares with Dr. Phil the devastating impact that her mother's death has had on her. She explains how she has become isolated and depressed, unable to function in her day-to-day life. Even more concerning, Sarah's relationship with her fiancé is suffering as a result. She confesses that she has become angry and emotionally withdrawn, pushing him away and causing strain in their relationship. Dr. Phil works with Sarah to help her process her grief and find a way to move forward, both for herself and for the sake of her relationship.
The second guest, Amanda, is in a different kind of battle – with her mother. Amanda's husband is a professional fighter, and when they first met, her mother was thrilled. However, as Amanda's husband's career began to take off and travel became more frequent, her mother began to express concern for Amanda's safety. The situation escalated, with Amanda's mother making unfounded accusations against her son-in-law and even filing a restraining order against him. Dr. Phil helps Amanda and her husband come up with a plan to deal with her mother's behavior, and encourages them to find a way to preserve their relationship despite the conflict.
Throughout the episode, Dr. Phil draws on his years of experience to offer practical advice and support to both Sarah and Amanda. He encourages them to be honest with themselves and with their loved ones, and helps them find ways to communicate more effectively. Ultimately, he shows them that even in the face of tragedy and conflict, there is always hope for healing and reconciliation.
