[quote=Anonymous]If you have been patient for years and kindly suggested therapy or medical help and this person won’t go, just stay away. Relationships are a two-way street, and so are conversations. Nobody gets to monopolize a party or an event or even a normal get- together just bc they refuse to address their mental health. Yes, life can be hard, but adults are responsible for seeking the care that they need. I have a relative like this and she would talk about highly personal things or hot-button political issues for for literally hours and nobody could change the conversation or get a word in edgewise. Even if she asked you a question, she would cut you off before you could finish answering. All pleas to address issues such as anxiety or depression were scoffed at and blown off. She now spends holidays alone. It’s horrible, but not as horrible as having her there.[/quote]
