What do I do about my mentally ill mom?
Hello everyone, I’m up to here with living with my mom, she has paranoia, bipolar, and high functioning schizophrenia. She’s not safe to live with she’s mentally and physically abusive, and she’s always burning food, “cleaning” but just making it worse, and she takes everything that doesn’t belong to her. She’ll wake us up at ridiculous hours, it’s not healthy. I’m scared living with her, I don’t feel safe at all.
Recently she got arrested for violating a restraining order and was ordered to go to mental health court, they said they were going to get her into a program where she would be forced to be on medication. But of course, they didn’t and they just released her from jail instead. We’ve tried and she’s had multiple visits to the mental health ward when she has break downs, but somehow we’re still not allowed to put her into medication because she doesn’t consent. I truly don’t know what to do anymore, I feel crazy, living with her makes me want to die🤕
does anyone know what I could possibly do? I’m so tired of this, she keeps saying that I killed our dead brother, and that he’s still alive and our neighbors kidnapped him, it’s so hard hearing this every single day.
