We try to just avoid or ignore her, but that never works. She just pushed or screams to check our phone because we didn't respond to her text. Or she'll call non-stop until she gets a response of some kind. God forbid she get off her bed and do something for herself though... Unless it's to see why we aren't responding... She hasn't been "as bad" lately though. Mental health crises can do that, apparently. We're just afraid this whole situation is gonna prompt another crisis.

Do you think she's maybe concerned about you? It sounds like she's anxious and she's gotten in the habit of texting and calling over and over. Of course, this doesn't help her anxiety. But maybe it makes her feel better once you answer- even if you're mad? I'm trying to see if from her side.
