My 34 year old daughter has bipolar 1, who is a single mom got out of the hospital after her second hospitalization in I month. The doctors and nurses did not tell my husband and I anything as she would not give permission. She is now living with us and just can stay focused on any task. She lost her job about 1 1/2 months ago because of this manic episode. She still is delusional and talks about famous people taking her on their tours. She wears me out. She does not seem as irritable as she was but she is still very sick. She is on 5 medications. When she is like this I just listen because in the past confronting her with reality just didn t work. How do you help a manic person continue to get well with out augments.
