**cherrydrpepper** · 03-01-2013, 11:55 PM

Im just wondering if anyone else has family with mental illness? She is paranoid schizophrenic so I live many hours away and shes legitimately afraid to drive here shes not just lazy. So she calls me every night and says shes going to be at a restaurant in her town several hours away and that she will see me there for dinner. No matter how many times I tell her I don't live there she calls every night to say the same damn thing. This is just what she does lately obviously shes crazy so I have seen a lot. It used to bother me but at some point I think I just shut those feelings down like I don't really think about her unless shes in front of me so to speak. I know we have some people with disorders here hopefully on their medicine so I'm not ranting against something a person can't control it just gets under my skin at times and this lady will not medicate will not take her scripts to control it.

Damn man, that must be rough. I don't have anyone in my family with a mental illness, but there are some crazies in my family too lol. I can't really lend advice seeing as how I've never been in the position before, but it's your mom and you're stuck with her.

I can see how her not trying to get a grip on the whole thing could get frustrating though. I don't man, I wish I had some insightful words lol

Be patient with her my brother.......its dont her fault, she has a chemical inbalance...............

Remember, This the person that carried you for 9 months, gave birth to you, and then wiped your nasty ass for the 2 or 3 years

Time to give back alittle!!

I feel your pain bro. My mother doesn't have a mental illness. But she's a raging alcoholic n goes on binges for a week at a time. I grew up with that BS. While I love my mother dearly I keep my distance .

It reminds me of a fiancee of mine in my 20's ... Her mom could be the sweetest thing, then turn crazy in 2 seconds. She had some horses, and anytime one of them got out, or something was missing, she stated that it was the Mexican mafia. She then started accusing me of being an informant to this Mexican mafia. I'm not even Mexican, just some blue eyed white dude. I really, really cared for the girl I was seeing, but looking back, it would have been a tough ride having her mom in the mix.
