@@seravot Sana's comment is from almost a year ago so I dont know if they will respond. But I live with mental illness, this video covers aspects I deal with. I think the most helpful part of the battle is just that, a strong and understanding support system. It's really hard to deal with when those around you make you feel alone and more isolated. I have been blessed to have an understanding husband who works with me and supports me in my journey to try and find healthier ways to cope. I also have a lot of friends who are extremely supportive and allow me to be fairly open about my struggles. I see massive differences in the mental health of my friends between people who dont have a strong background of support and understanding from those they interact with every day and those like myself who do. But I want to say, it's not the same for everyone. There's no one shoe fits all. I did therapy as well and continue to off and on.

At times she was this bitter enraged screaming mother who would verbally and physically abuse us. At times she was this "normal" fun loving parent i enjoyed being around.

Wow the opening scene brings back so many memories. My Mother definetely had a Mental Illness, which my Father ignored and allowed her to go untreated until I was a Freshman in College. At least 3 times a week I would be sitting on the sidewalk as the teachers left one by one and finally the principal would leave as I was STILL sitting waiting for my Mother to be picked up.I realize that they were different times back then as I am almost 60, but it didn't make it any less frustrating and worriesom at the time. The staff at the schools I attended(we moved often)grew used to it and rarely asked if I needed to try to call her. I knew better than to try to call as she would get EXTREMELY angry if I did and I got beaten for it. Definetely know what these girls are going through!

[@thanimoinamkou8372]

It is sad and we certainly don't have a normal childhood. We have to mature sooner than others and most of the time we don't really understand what is going on with our parents. we just learn through time and practice how to manage it and how to behave with them to make things easier. When I finally understood years later that my mom was actually bipolar my respect and love for her grew exponentially . She not only had to fight in the world for her family to have a good life, she had to do it while fighting against the judgments and misunderstanding of her family and society, and fight against herself as well even tho she knew sometimes she couldn't control herself at all and she didn't even know why. All of this while having us, her kids, at the center of her heart. It wasn't perfect but she did try everything she could for us to be the successful adults we are now.

[@Niqua10023]

That is true then they get out of control having unnecessary kids out there and getting into trouble. Not to be rude but, it do costs problems if you don’t be careful or wait. If not loved and have an issue like that and the household is like that. You don’t care for nothing. You just do it. Until you find the right one and even with that illness? They can find the right way when they find the right person to love. My bf is like that. And I’m always going be there to support. And my family. It’s hard and sometimes ppl don’t get it. You don’t know what they went though.

[@alexacossette4608]

My mom is bipolar and has suffered various mental illnesses. When she was at her very worst, she tells me and my siblings, that we were the only things that kept her going. Even now that she's been medicated for years, she tells us that we are her whole world. She tells me that if we weren't here she doesn't know what would have become of her. She's pushed through to be here for us, and despite the turmoil that befell our family because of her various mental illnesses, she is a wonderful mother and wife. She is never going to be "normal" but even on her worst days when she isn't particularly nice or patient, and just a little mean, she is still here with us and that counts for more than anything. It's important because we know she is fighting and that she is trying.

[@keeperofsecrets2]

I think you have little exprience with mental illness. Even adults sometimes don't know what to do with a loved one suffering from this kind of mental illness! I know first hand how hard it is as there is mental illness in my family. "Coming to terms" really just means accepting that the mental illness is NOT the person, and learning how to not take the symptoms of the illness personally, while at the same time trying to keep that person safe. That takes years for adults to accomplish in a relationship with another adult suffering mental illness! It is completely unfair to expect a child to be able to do so!

Yeah this def brought me to tears. I had a really hard time the end of 2019 into 2020 there were a few days where I just wanted to end it. I even had notes written and voice recordings (they break my heart when I listen to them this day, thank god I never did anything) I was seriously done. I was planning out how I was going to do it and then I thought of my daughters. I knew how I felt, (a burden, useless, tired) but I knew how important I was to my girls, and how important my mother is to me. I couldn’t imagine not being able to call her. I couldn’t leave my girls without their mother, I felt I was being selfish. So for days I continued to feel numb, like my emotions were just gone, and every day was the same. Finally an old friend reached out to me and encouraged me to get onto a social media platform and it helped me tremendously! I began to talk to people again, my confidence was slowly coming back. I began to want to get out of bed, get all dolled up and go hang out with my friends. I stopped isolating myself &+ I noticed my girls were a little happier too. How you feel about yourself reflects greatly on others. I still have some days to where I just want to stay in bed, or watch tv rather than chill with friends, but no longer do I feel like I don’t belong; or like I’m a burden. I know I deserve to be on this earth. We all do, we all have a reason, a purpose, we are all important and special. We just have to remind ourselves that. 👏🏼😁

It's not fun at all. It's not fun hearing your parents yell at each other in the living room because your mom spent too much money on groceries and your father gets mad at anything she buys. It's not fun when he comes home and complains about his work and how he hates his boss. It's not fun when he yells at you because you dumped out his extra-coffee. It's not fun when he gets mad at you because you locked him out of the house by accident. It's not fun when you go out with your older sister and mom, and your dad is constantly calling your mom asking where she is. It's not fun when he doesn't say 'I love you' at the end of the day. It's not fun when he micro-manages everything and gets upset when you don't do things correctly. It's not fun when he goes on a maniac spiral and starts a new project in his workshop, because this time, 'things will be different.' It's not fun when he fails at his new project and takes his anger out on you. It's not fun when he promises you new clothes but you never get them. It's not fun when he yells at you for not turning off the hall light at night time. It's not fun when he doesn't take interest in you or your day. And it's not fun when he thinks of you as a burden; someone who he has to spend money on and put effort into. It's not fun when you know that deep down, he doesn't truly love you.

I have bipolar 1 disorder and four children. I’ve only been medicated for 5 years and my oldest is 20. This was my kids life before I was finally diagnosed and medicated. We can all sympathize with the mom. We know she can’t help it but, trust me. My oldest two children have never forgiven me for their childhood. I didn’t know I was sick. I remember one time I got so scared and thought my son (about 4 at the time) was possessed. I wouldn’t let him touch me and I locked myself in my room, crying because I was so scared. He thought it was a game at first. After several hours, I realized I over reacted and he really wasn’t possessed and I unlocked my door went to and held him so tight and tearfully apologized. He’s 20 and that’s just one of the many things he tells others about his childhood with his bipolar mom. I couldn’t hold down a job. I couldn’t keep up with house chores. I had episodes of paranoia and delusions. I knew something was wrong with me but I didn’t know what and none of the military psychiatrists took me seriously when I tried to tell them what I was experiencing. I read so many blog posts and watch so many videos about kids having to recover from their childhood into adulthood being raised by a bipolar mom. I never wanted my kids to have those “bipolar mom” stories. I never wanted to raise kids who have to recover from their childhood. But I have and I hate myself for it. I have episodes just like her where I feel worthless and like they’d all be better off without me. I want to kill myself and get it over with, but I can’t seem to do it. I wake up the next morning and sob because I have to see another day. I wake up and think, “Not again.” 😥 I ruined my oldest two children’s childhood and turned them into adults who have to see therapists because of their mom issues. I didn’t mean to. I hate myself for it.
