Thanks for posting this Bizi!

As for the other things brought up, I am a daughter with BP II and my mother said once I got on the right med she got her daughter back. It can happen if things fall into place. I too know it from the other side as my son is autistic and I have to stand back and NOT do everything for him since I want him to grow and develop as a little person.

It's not easy being a daughter with problems and having a sweet child with problems, but I believe help IS out there if you look for it in the right places. It sure sounds like she's doing the right things though Jacquie. I don't keep up with any of my old friends and that's mostly because they weren't really good friends.

I have ONE close friend I can talk to and that's it. But having her, my DH and my mother are enough for me.
