[quote=Anonymous]I've got a friend of about 25 years who went through/goes through similar cycles. I am just there for them to talk to when they need it. And sometimes I offer odd jobs when they need extra cash. They are on medicaid, which helps with the doctor bills. They have a part-time job at a shop another friend owns. They recently turned 62 and started to collect SS. I found that I can't offer more than this - when they spiral they can't/won't listen at all, and when they aren't spiraling they can barely listen. I can't fix them. [/quote]
