[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] Lol. They don't stop speaking for "no reason" -- and your definition of "little" is undoubtedly something your sister would debate.[/quote]

People cut off siblings for good reason all the time where the cut-off sibling, due to lack of insight, thinks it was for "no reason." When this scenario takes place with a sibling who has a mental illness, it gives the sibling who is actually at fault all the ammunition in the world to wail away about it like OP. "My sibling cut me off because they have bipolar disorder!!!" Nope, they cut you off because you are a jack@$$.

OP's nieces and nephews have phones and they aren't taking her calls either. She did something. And it probably wasn't "little."[quote]

So clearly you are the one who has bipolar disorder or traits and have subjected people close to you to your unpredictable behavior. There are plenty of us on this thread that have family members with bipolar who are familiar with the irrational decisions of an unmedicated person with bipolar, and cutting off communication with someone for no rational reason is one of the milder slights that a person with bipolar might inflict.[/quote]

Her nieces and nephews are scared at the punishment they'll get from a histrionic and unmedicated mentally ill mother who controls their lives.  They are not independent yet, so their actions are not to be taken as independent.  They are probably intimidated if not scared.[/quote]
