I am the one and only official "mental patient " in the family. No one else would even think there was anything wrong with them. I gave up telling my mother things that hurt because she cannot see it at all and I don't want to hurt her further. My mpother never realises she's said or done anything wrong. Like I said, since I'm the only one with a dx, it's all on me.
That must be so hard with your daughter living far away. Is she in therapy or on meds? I really feel for you. When my daughter got sick in NY, I went crazy trying to help her.
