Does anyone know from experience how to cope with a suicidal/bipolar mother?

been there. i'm 18, and weent through all this crap when i was 16. my mom was the same way. hated always feeling guilty and sick, worried and insecure. the only thing you can do is ride it out. you can get professional help if you wish, like a psychiatrist. if not, you just have to hope it gets better and continue to urge her to get help. its a tough situation, i hope it works out.
