My sister is Bipolar. There is no doubt in anyone's mind but hers. He father is bipolar and it's hereditary, but no one can convince her. It could even be more than just being bipolar. She's in her late 20s so it's harder because she sees herself as an adult. No one in my family noticed in the beginning because they say in most cases it doesn't show up until they are in their 20s and then she moved out the house so no one noticed until she moved back in. That's when we started realizing she needed serious help, but it wasn't that serious she just had her moods. Then it progressed into something much more dangerous. Where she started turning on us too, and that resulted in some fights and some scary experiences and some police officers that we would have much rather avoided. Now she's moved in with another family member in another state and causing havoc over there without telling us. My mom has gone to try to convince her she needs to come home and that she really needs help with her father, but it's not working. She has gotten involved with the wrong type of people and plans on doing the wrong thing for her profession. She doesn't believe girls can be bipolar but she wont look into it, and I really wish she would because it is really sad seeing her flush her life down the drain. She's become another person entirely. I know that if she continues doing what she's doing eventually she'll realize it and end up hating herself more than she does already and go into a huge depression and my family can't handle another death if she starts thinking stupid things. How can you convince someone like that to go get help? Especially when they think everything is a conspiracy and wont trust anyone. It's just hard. I hate seeing my mom be upset because I'm sure this hurts her the most and knowing there's nothing I can do. She just wont listen.
