Well all I know is this...my little sister is extremely mentally ill...however she doesn't believe so. i've put her in the hospital myself on involantary papers. but when she got out she quit her meds and went back to her self destructive behavior AND quit talking to me. what i've learned from this is that if someone doesn't believe they have a problem you can't force them to see it and you can't force them to get better. HOWEVER i completely understand wanting to do that. but neither of us can help our loves if they won't let us
i'm having an EXTREMELY hard time excepting this right now too though...its alot harder when its your partner it seems than if it were just a friend or other relation...
