My adult daughter was just discharged yesterday from the hospital. She was admitted a week ago during a manic episode of bipolar disorder. I was hoping I could see more improvement when she came home. She has calmed down but is still somewhat delusional. She is taking zoloft and geodon. I'm afraid she won't take her meds or keep her dr appts. She lives an hour away from me and I can't be with her at all times. How should friends and family handle the delusions? Do you explain they're not really true or go along with it? We didn't receive any family counseling before she left the hospital because she didn't think it was necessary. She just wanted to get out. Any advice on dealing with this disorder would be greatly appreciated. I want to help her!!!
