Is my sister Bi-Polar?!
Question: Is my sister Bi-Polar!?
I'm twenty five and my sister is thirty, she is lazy and always looks for other people to provide her needs, she never finishes anything she starts, she is all over the place, one minute she is fine then the next minute she clicks out and starts cursing her husband out calling him a stupid fat idiot, than minutes later she's being nice to him!.
I love my sister and I want to help her, she also has anxiety attacks and she says she thinks of death everyday,her husband thinks that she is crazy! I don't know if I should label her as crazy but I know she need help!
She also tells me that she has a million things running through her head!? idk what to do when she tells me this, and she doesn't want me to tell my mom!? I feel stuck and don't know what to do about her!. How can I help her without hurting her!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
You're not going to be able to tell her anything!. Ask her how she feels when she feels good!. If she says anything that resembles god-like, invincible, like she has the ability to do anything and everything - better than everyone else, then chances are she's bipolar!.
You can't diagnose her!. You can ask if her behavior is causing problems and ask her if she has ever considered talking to someone!.
Bipolar disorder is a mood disorder!. It also effects behaviors!. Not finishing projects is typical!. Flying off the handle at someone in frustration and blaming that person for all his/her problems is typical!. People with bipolar disorder have a much higher rate of suicide!. The rushing thoughts are typical too!. But you probably knew all that!. You know her better than anyone - you're her brother!.
What worked for me (bipolar husband) was that question (how do you feel when you feel good) and to put my foot down and say that if he didn't get help, the children and I would leave!. I suggest you talk to her husband and your mother and get together on this!. You will need someone to keep an eye on her 24/7 until she gets professional help!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I would think go to wherever she is, so you can have a face to face talk with her, if not talk to her over the phone!. Tell her about your concerns for her, and explain that you want to help!. Don't call her crazy, that's not what anyone(well, most anyone) wants to hear!. Tell her that you'll always be there for her, and that you're willing to go pretty far to help her (only if it's the truth though!!!!!)!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Actually, no!. Bi-Polar is characterized by period of down time (normal behavior or depression) and manic episodes!. Manic episodes must last up to two weeks!. There are different levels of bipolar and there are also disorders that are similar!. Bipolar is NOT mood changes, there must be manic episodes!. Check on the website for more info!. Good luck with your sister!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
sounds like either ADD, just pure laziness coupled with her hatred for her life, or simple crazy!.
