I am praying that she finds the help she needs, and also saying a prayer for you Cathryn. You need support and must take care of your self during this very trying time.

Mental health is real. Our country in general does a terrible dealing with this issue. Prayers sent. It is easy to see when someone has a broken leg not when they have a broken brain. X1million

There is no definition of the perfect mind. Mental illness aint no joke. Im an IED (Intermittent Explosive Disorder) sitting right here, with many chances to be in prison. Ive got a great life and have done things less than 1% of the worlds population has done, but it was never enough. Constant sadness i couldnt break out of and still have troubles with, and it would come out in aggression. Im on meds that took that edge off, but not my edge. Done properly,.meds can and will help. People need to forget that stigmatism. My old man was an absolute mess. Probably Bi-polar but undiagnosed. Anyway, do not let her know you feel sorry for her. You need to be the strong one NOW. She needs support, not pity...and i say that with compassion. Im right at your age and i realize how scary and sad the uncontrollable can be with a loved ones mind. I have other fam too, we're all a mess in some way. Be supportive and meet with the doctors with her to insure she is being totally honest with her symptoms. My wife is also in mental health...evidently she likes to bring ber work home with her. Make sure she realizes she is so very young and has her whole life in front of her with plenty of time to get things straight. Theres always hope, you make sure she feels it. Holler if i can help. Edit: and im praying for all of us wackadoos. Edit 2: Always focus on the positives. Eliminate all negatives. Ex. Sure, we're locked down and outta school and cant see friends, but we're together as a family. etc. Dwell on what her strengths are, and encourage them. I can only imagine what kids are going through right now, aint got none. But i do know that idle hands are the devils workshop, or something like that...and i can attest. When she gets released keep her as busy as you can. Im sure thats easier said than done. Good luck and God Bless you all.
