My daughter is at her wits ends with her oldest daughter. There is certainly something amiss with her., Since I am bipolar, and on her fathers side, there was a suicide and alcoholism. Her husb. won’t support her in her search for help with her daughter. So she is going to have her hands full.
She is hoping the school will help her get help for her daughter. I really don’t want to go into detail, but there are many symptoms of bipolar, a lot of bizzare behavior; the extreme mood changes; inability to focus; the concrete thinking; anger problems; extremem jealousy of her little sister; (which by the way is perfectly normal). It seems like she is being defiant with her Mom, but she can’t switch from one thought into another one, thus the frustration and the response of anger with her Mom. She doesn’t seem to have ADHD,however, it may be a secondary problem. Any suggestions would be most helpful for the mother. She hates and loves her all at the same time. There isn’t a lack of love.
