I live in a very rural area. There's this insane lady in the area who posts the most batshit things I've ever seen/read. At this point it's a bonding activity between others up here..."Did you see what she posted?!". She usually posts from midnight to 3 am. Has admitted to hearing voices and drinking excessively. Enjoy the insanity
Given everything that's happened the last year with the loss of Dagwood, now Andy, and Bucket being sick, I think the mods should seriously consider deactivating or pausing this page for a while. I don't think your hatred of Brianna really matters when it comes to the reality of loss and how painful grief is. She's expressed suicidal ideation because of online bullying. Please remember Lee McMillan the van lifer on YouTube who took her own life after online bullying and begging people to stop because she was having suicidal ideation. You can argue this isn't the same and any other argument you want but the reality is grief, especially when it becomes layered like this, is very difficult to survive. I've had my fair share of it and wouldn't wish it upon anyone.
I know I'll get eaten alive in this post as white knighting but I seriously think the mods should take this suggestion.
I have a sibling who has been in active pyschosis for 8 months and I suspect it's due to heavy addiction. It's a long story, but I'm scared for my safety, my family's safety, and my sanity. Advice needed for going no contact with a sibling. This shit is the hardest thing I've ever gone through. Never thought I'd be questioning a restraining order and no contact with my sibling.
Edit to add: I've exhausted all legal, medical, and mental health services trying to get them help. They don't want help.
I have a loved one who has ADHD and autism. They started medications and therapy after the diagnosis and it seemed like it worked really well for a while. But several months ago took a severe turn. They have been in pyschosis for almost 6 months now. Their entire personality changed, really scary delusions and hallucinations, and an extreme anger issue. I have tried to get them mental health help, law enforcement, attorney, the whole works. They refuse help and have cut ties with most family and friends who have tried. I honestly don't think they can tell they are in psychosis, but with all the symptoms tracked by family and friends it's clear.
I just want to get them help so they can live a happy and healthy life. I also have no idea what's causing this or why it started. I suspect substance abuse but I have no idea. Any advice from anyone who has dealt with this before either themselves or a loved one?
