Complicated Question Please Read Details If U Feel Like Answering it!!!!!?

Allrighty! My best freind has been living with her father for 9 years. Also in this house are her two older brothers, on 17, one 21 (Jobless and he's a bum). Her Oldest brother recently attempted a THIRD sexual assault that the police refuse to investigate, because they claim that she's just seeing things. She then moved in with me for 7 months before I moved to a rural town in Nebraska to live and work on a farm for the remaining 5 months of the school year. She was then forced to move in with her mother T,T who has Manic Depressive disorder >.>She has been having alot of trouble dealing with her mother who is Mentally unstable,only works part time, and a fundamentalst Chjristian who follows the theory that god will always save u in the end...My Freind however is a noraml person with rational beliefs, she believes in god but doesn't go over board with it and she actually understands her mothers mental ilness, but her mother is driving her to the edge. With Stupid Rules. Do u have...

heheheh we already checked for spport groups, found one, she refuses to go, she also refuses to talk with councilers (we both HATE councillers) She refuses to talk to anyone but myself and a few of my freinds, that she is close with my two ex-bf's tured "just freind" and another of my freind that she gets along with who happens to know all these things, we're just starting to run out of advice and it's making her tense and upset>.> She also thinks that she has the same mental illness as her mum (not true she has been tested) and she thinks she's going crasy...

If she's old enough to move out then I'd say get out and live a stable life on her own. There is no reason that any one should have to put up with a brother who does things like that to them. Plus you sound lke a very nice friend to her, and if you are willing to listen and help her through all this then it's obvious you are a true friend! :) Good Job Buddy. But no seriously if I was her I'd move out as soon as I could, if no one believed me as far as the sexual assault then I'd never be alone with my brother. If she wasn't diagnosed with manic depression dissorder then she shouldn't worry 'bout it, but if she lives through this much longer she will go crazy, I know I would.

Have your friend talk with a counsellor at school. Also have her check with the local MHMR to see if their are any support groups in the area to help her deal with her mother.

only a councelor or a social worker can help her...if the problem is serious enough she should get help

Sorry, iwould answer you , but THERE IS SOOO MUCH WRITING!

Please advise your friend that manic depressive illness (now called Bipolar Disorder) may be caused from a chemical imbalance and is an illness that can be hereditary. Your friend needs to see a psychiatrist. Another option would be for her to talk with her medical doctor and be honest with him. He can refer her to a psychiatrist if necessary. There are good clinical psychologist out there. Sometimes, you have to find a match or someone that you feel comfortable with. I understand that you and your friends can talk to her, but at this point she really needs professional help. If you have any other questions, let us know. We are here to help you.

Well, I understand about having a Bipolar mother; I do too. I also worry about having it, but even though your friend has been "tested" it can develop later on. You aren't really ever out of the woods for mental illness. I would suggest getting her mother into councelling and medication. Medication is the KEY with bipolar. People with this disorder can be HELL to live with, but it is VERY manageable. Why the problem with therapists? I would highly suggest her speaking with SOMEONE who can help. This could include school councelors, traditional therapists, religious figures, and even one of those call in support systems (you see ads for them on TV) like Boys and Girls club. As far as the sexual assualts, keep reporting them and if you still aren't getting anywhere, suggest speaking with someone else. If she talks to a therapist, they can help with the police. I hope this helps some. It sounds like you are a good friend and she needs that. Please make sure you are there if she needs to talk. Good luck!

Tell her if she really believed that God will help her in the end she should believe it herself. It sounds like your friend just wants a pity party and wants everyone to feel sorry for her. Tell her that you are tired of hearing about this, if she wants help and wants someone to go with her to these groups that you will go along, if she refuses tell her to just SHUT UP. She will then move on to someone else.
