Any Suggestions For Treatment Of Bipolar Disorder?

My sister suggests that our 28yr old daughter is bipolar. I don t know anything about it. She is out of control most of the time and makes horrible choices for her life. She is either Screaming at her kids or out drinking and drugging. She has always done what she wants to do and we never had any control with her or her behavior. She would just call the pollice on us in High School if we told her no she can t go stay all night.... Any suggestions... She is wild like and tells us off then calls granpa and complains we aren t there to fix her messes... Help?

Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

In your case, i would keep possibility of bipolar disorder and borderline personality disorder. In bipolar disorder, she needs antipsychotic or mood stabilizer either of them that depends upon the exact diagnosis. In borderline personality disorder, she needs psychotherapy. Consult a psychiatrist for proper diagnosis and in case you need our help, we would be happy to help you.

Thanks
