It sounds like you're telling me I lack compassion for my roommate. Are you?
No, and I am sorry if what I posted came off as assuming that Blanche. Thanks for giving me a chance to notice that without slamming me. I was also a bit confused about the arrangement you made about lowering the rent through the sister of your room mate. I am not sure if you asked for that because of having to cover food for her and do other things during the time you have already spent there or if you asked for the rent lowered if you are going to continue to be expected to do all these extra things you have been doing. I was not sure what your arrangement was in the first place tbh. It doesn't sound like your room mate knows what your presence is supposed to mean either. Perhaps she simply floats in and out of reality and your presence means something different to her depending on where she is in her messed up reality. For all we know she may be experiencing early onset dimentia of somekind too. She may need to see a neurologist and not just a psychiatrist or psychologist.

I defintely sympathize with how you feel confused and uncomfortable and how this challenge isn't anything you were prepared for. Yes, it's weird for sure.
