Hey Jane, I am sorry that you have to go thru this with your mother. I know that you have a lot of underlying issues unresloved from growing up and not feeling love. I have been there with you thru your struggles and I know that you battle with this within. I agree that you need to go talk to a counselor or some type of doctor that can help you with these problems. I know it is very overwhelming to have someone that has mental issues and they wont take care of themselves. There has to be some type of support you can get to take some of this stress off of you but more importantly, you need someone to help you overcome this battle that you fight within yourself. My son is 18 and is going thru some major mental issues and I am so scared that I wont be able to make him take his meds regularly and go to his appointments but I can only do the best that I can. I know for me personally, I am going to talk him into giving me power of attorney over him as far as making his medical decisions. Maybe if you could do something like that, if she gets to being out of control and not wanting to take her meds, you could have her admitted to the hospital to get her stabilized. I dont know if this helps, this is pretty much all new to me, but I can relate to loving someone so much and feel like you might just as well be fighting a losing battle. Hang in there and get you someone to talk to and dont pick up. You know the drill.....
