I know her condition caused her behavior but it's hard to understand how some people get this upset, I'll always forgive but never forget. She could have really hurt me...I even had my pepper spray in her face.. she called me a cunt and said "spray me bitch" That's when I knew I had to get out. I was not about to hurt her unless I had to for my own safety.
Patience and compassion seem to be my new found skills. I think hep got that ball rolling ;) lmfao

She's refused to take her meds for months....because her pharmacist kept changing the brand. She was convinced they were not all the same ingredients which causes different side effects...I kinda agreed with this but being her niece I didn't feel it was my place to tell her to take her pills anyways. I suggested she see her doctor to discuss this but I can't force her, damn maybe I should have lol

Ok so my aunt decided to have a melt down... ........snip......
You know April I have way to much experience with this and I am sorry you have to. There is nothing much you can do. You are merely the niece. Her sisters need to legally insist she is put on a conservatorship. I'm sure there are social workers etc... that can help make this happen.

Stay away from her as much as you can when not with family. There is nothing you can do to help her. Worse when she goes off on a loved one, such as her niece, it's even worse for her. For the most part they are aware of this and just can not stop their behavior. Imagine being the perpetrator and hating what you're doing but not being able to stop it. It is such an insane hell and no that's not my mental illness I've just heard folks describe it to me more than once. Your not living with her is a kindness. Extricate yourself as soon as you can for both of your well-being.

If you have someone going off on you, and you're in the US I would subdue them first, before I called the cops, if I could. A simple way to subdue someone is with a mattress. The biggest one you can move, and it works best with 2 people, then just corner them and take them down with it. Simple, safe, effective, then call the cops once subdued for transport. If you think about trying that alone it can work but you and the mattress must weigh significantly more than the person you are opposing otherwise I'm with you out the door!

Ahh life with my family, it's not just growing up its an adventure :) Welcome to the family...

Yup and then you feel vaguely guilty wondering whose holiday she's ruining ;( or if this turn through the system would FINALLY enable you to force her to take her meds, there's just no winning in this situation, is there?

Ok cool thank you. Figured here would be a quicker reply rather than support. Besides I wouldn't want to take space away from the people that post their plant problems there!:shock: I don't want to sound mean but I always laugh when I see those thread titles there.
