Sounds very similar to me. I'm always hoping I'll get through to her somehow, sometimes I feel like I do, and I've realized the only times she starts to feel like she needs help is on a day where she's not experiencing an episode. When I try to talk to her on days where it's acting up, it's impossible and I only make it worse. Thanks for the message and I'm sure I'll be checking back here for support, it's something I definitely need since I really have no one I can turn to while I go through this with her.

You know some people are just so afraid to give up any control of their life to something thats unknown to them. Its usually in their own time they make the decision to seek help. I have a loved one who too cant give up control..even though I can see what chaos they live in...to them though its familiar and safe. Ive tried to get them to let me go to the doc with them so I can say whats really goin on and they always find away for me not to be able to go. I too am always looking for that perfect thing to say to them that will make them want to get help. Unfortunatly I know im doin all I can and Ill just have to keep trying and hope tomorow will be different. Again you sound like you really care and I hope things work out for you and your family. I hope you can stick around here....the people here are really supportive and helpfull.  |
