How to deal with a disillusional mentally ill adult daugher?

  • Posted on February 25, 2011 at 12:17 am

My daugher is on medication for ADHD; in the last ten years has had several different diagnosis. Her Dad is paranoid schizophrenic, and she was diagnosed with the same, but later the doctors decided she was MPD, which I tend to agree, as I have seen different personalities in her.
However, one of her personalities wants to destroy me. She tells and believes horrible things about me, such as, she isn’t her dads daughter, I had an affair with someone else, I belonged to an occult and was immersed in the satanic occult, and for a number of years she told me my dad didn’t die, I was just telling her that to keep him away from her, she was about 2 when he passed away in ’74! I love my daughter, but when she is so disillusioned, I tend to stay away, even though I feel she needs my love and support. I know that talking to her about her dislusions, doesn’t do any good, until she is her self again. She was a recoverying alcoholic of 6 yrs., but recently was fired from her job, and relapsed.

How do I protect a mentally ill stepdaughter who is underage from her mother?

  • Posted on October 20, 2010 at 6:20 pm

My stepdaughter is 17 and has a long history of mental illness. CPS has been called several times on her mother who continues to have boyfriends over that sexually abuse my stepdaughter. Those boyfriends of her mother are also doing meth right in front of her. She ended up running away because her mother expected her daughter to have sex with those guys so she could get free drugs. My husband has a joint custody arrangement and the police brought her over our house. I don’t know what to do to keep her mother from coming to get her. We filed a police report and she told the officers what her mother’s boyfriend had done I don’t know how to protect her. What about a mental health advocate? Since she is severely mentally ill would this be an option? She is 5 months away from being 18 so to go to court at this stage would be a waste of money. It would probably take 5 months to bring this to court. Please give your best advice since I am trying to protect this girl from a horrible home life.

Do you think my husband is mentally ill or just a jerk?

I have been married almost 8 yrs. It has been a roller coaster ride to say the least. He use to drink and admitted to being an alcoholic. He has not drank in 3 yrs. I don’t know if the way he is is caused by being a dry alcholic or if he drank because he is mental… My husband is like 2 different people. He can be so nice, kind and loving and then in an instant his facial features change and he turns into the meanest person I have ever met. He will be really rude or mean. Many times he just screams and screams at me. He does not remember things right. I can tell him a story of something I did and the next day he’ll transfer himself into the story and say it was his incident and not mine. He leaves me voice mails telling me how much he loves me and a week later he is screaming that he hates me and he wants a divorce. He treats his daughters very good but treats my sons (his stepsons, they are 20) like crap.. When he is in one of these spells. I can do NOTHING right.
