[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 287997, member: 84"] klmno I will tell you someone I know as fact. Many mentally ill people seek and education in psychology. Many wind up being tdocs and psychiatrists, many don't. They get into the field trying to figure themselves out....and usually wind up finding a way to justify their own behaviors. I've had this told to me by many professional sources when I was working a psychiatric unit before husband and I got together, and have found it to ring true with experience. Odds are your mother will never seek help.:frowny: Don't worry. You eventually get to the point that what they say rolls right off your back. With my Mom I chalk it up to her illness and let it go. If she's over the top I hang up on her, whatever. ((hugs)) [/QUOTE]
