[QUOTE="Leana, post: 729429, member: 22778"] Marlboro, Think it is hard to believe that they can be so smart yet so mentally ill. It's like they have no common sense. My husband's brother was a thoracic surgeon at 21 years old, yet had zero common sense and a raging temper. He passed away at 35 in fire. Tragic. They say there is a fine line. So, I dropped some things off for my son, books and some clothes on my way to a bridal shower. His ex girlfriend faced timed him and was going to commit suicide by taking handfuls of pills which he witnessed. He was visibly shaken and upset. Think she wanted him to come over. He instead called her family and she was furious at him. She is Borderline (BPD) and this is her 2 suicide attempt in 3 months. They had to 302 her and took her in an ambulance. She accused him of lying til he sent her uncle the picture of her taking the pills. It was a 4 hour ordeal for her family with her locking herself in the bathroom, and on and on. I ended up sitting with my son til I knew she was in the psychiatric ward. We went out to eat and I just listened. No lectures, no you should do this or that. Just listened. He did the right thing and I'm proud of him for it. I see their relationship as toxic to both of them I can only pray they part ways. My relationship with my son has changed dramatically. He is learning to be responsible for his choices. I'm no longer the clean-up manager. Thanks for listening. Crazy thing is this posting helps. Sorta like an online journal. Prayers for our children [/QUOTE]
