Hey guys! I haven't posted here before, instead preferring to post in the specific sections for illnesses, but this time, I need help with my mother. I'm 17 years old, turning 18 on the 22nd of August next year. I have a lot of trouble with my mother, who refuses to acknowledge that I'm not okay. I've been hospitalized three times, twice for suicide attempts and one for a threat, and all three times, the doctors diagnosed bipolar. No matter what, my mother refuses to consent to medication, aside from the first time. The second time, she refused Lamictal and the third, Seroquel. I don't know what to do. She drives me absolutely insane, and I don't have Xanax or Klonopin to help stop me from going crazy. She just refuses to listen to anything I have to say. She just repeats herself and then calls me a "lazy, spoiled bastard." Does anyone have any ideas on how to get her to understand that I need help? I'm so close to breaking, and I honestly don't know what to do next. Thanks guys!
