My sister is bipolar Anonymous 105904
And I can’t take it anymore. We live together since she can’t live alone and she doesn’t want to live with my parents. Every days I must cheer her up, or calm her down because she act crazy. Yesterday she send me a suicide letter on snap so I had to call 911 and now she is in the hospital. It should make me feel better but I feel nervous because I have no contact with her. When I’m with her I’m miserable, but when we’re apart I’m miserable too. What should I do ? I’m just sick of it, I feel so anxious and bad all the time because of her. Sometimes I hate her, even if I know it’s not her fault, and I hate myself for it

You believing that life without her will be miserable is a telltale sign of codependence. You are an adult and are free to choose people you associate and interact with. Choose the ones who aren't actively poisoning your life and trying to manipulate you and it will get better. Mental illness is not an excuse to endure this torture.

Better be alone and miserable than being with someone and miserable, but that's just me.

As someone who had to take care of a "difficult" grandma, I can say that, no matter how bad you feel for her, getting away from this shit will feel like a breath of fresh air.
