[quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately, your dd can't really help him. When the person has their episodes, it's hard to reach them. Your daughter has alot of empathy and he trusts her so he keeps calling her. She needs to set boundaries. Even if it means, she can only talk to him 1 hour a day. That's even alot really. It is an exhausting to talk to someone with mental illness and having an episode because it goes nowhere. You have to intervene because her daily life is effected. But, knowing she is an adult, it's hard to tell her what to do because she has empathy. It's hard to walk away from someone you care about. [/quote]
