[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]College friend could be high strung but was mostly very high functioning - an amazing student at a T10 school on scholarship, then went to grad school on scholarship and had a successful career for a number of years. But now 20 years later, she has grown increasingly erratic, and seems unable to deal with anything without flipping out. She seems unable to hold a job. I also suspect she lies and exaggerates a lot. I’ve tried to address with her directly but she only evades. This has been going on for several years now. I want to be a supportive friend but I’m at a loss. There is other mental illness in the family so I wonder if it’s something genetic that was triggered. [/quote] Yes yes and yes. Hopefully someone in her family gets her in for a neuropsychology test. Might only be adhd or asd, or something else. [/quote]
