I need help. I'm dealing with mental illness in my household and don't know what to do.

In all sincerity, she sounds like she is having a break down of some sort. The stress of this pandemic has taken its toll on a lot of people. Now, we are being told to feel guilty for being "privileged". It is a lot for people to handle who are not extremely strong mentally. I have seen people freak out over these situations that I know in my personal life that I never dreamed would react that way. If she is willing to go talk to someone I would recommend it. The insomnia and mania definitely sound like a mental issue. In the moments she will agree to see a doctor, I would immediately make an appointment for her. Also, if there is a family member or friend who she respects the opinion of I would try to get them to talk to her. Amyone else who can help keep her accountable for getting care from a doctor. Praying for you and her!  Good for you for not saying ok, it's going badly, I'm bailing. Also, good for you to think of her son, and wanting to help him too, and thinking what this is doing to him. Sounds like she needs to see a therapist; probably needs Rx; which is better than the alternative, i.e. staying like she is, or even suicide, the ultimate end game when a person is depressed or mentally ill. It would be so good if she could get really out of the news/propaganda whirlwind for awhile. I''m sure the lockdown has affected so many of us, much worse than the virus. I'll pray for you and her and her son. God bless you Thank you for your kind words
