I am in the same boat as Costello. My daughter is the one trying to live with her mental illness. I have been frustrated so much lately, but it is because I didn't truly understand what was going on with her. I started REALLY researching HARD and I think it is helping. I am finally understanding that she can't help what is going on.

Lifedreamer, I really hope that you can get the understanding that you need. So sorry you haven't.
