My whole family has issues as I'm sure many families do.
I have been existing and I consider still being alive my only sign of being OK at the moment. Anyway, my sister ![]() My question, Is there a book or a sight that exists to help someone understand why people are drawn to these theories. Maybe some debunking of a few would be nice. Mentally, I don't have the power to take on this struggle at the time but I hate to see her sinking deeper and deeper. I don't think it would help too much but I feel that I should try someway to help her. Sincerely Melikuchelly ![]() |

I have an uncle like that. Can't reason with him - he's firmly convinced, to the point of swearing on his mother's grave, that this or that thing he read in a forwarded e-mail is true.
In my experience, I found it's best to let him rant and rave and either space out or follow what he's saying, but in a completely dispassionate way. Neither agreeing nor disagreeing. Agreeing will give him more fuel, disagreeing will lead to an argument in 9 out of 10 situations. |
