How do I approach this?!?!

Hey guys... I have quite the problem.

My mom , over the past five years, has suffered from severe depression, and has been on and off medication for it constantly. To make it short, .. she began NOT TAKING any medications at all, believing herbal remedies and natural things would heal her disease. For a while, she was okay, we thought... she was keeping up with household chores and functioning fine in the house.
But, soon she became very unsocial to anyone else... she quit her job, she lost all her friends... and her behaviour at home became extremely violent. Especially towards me.
:smash:

One minute, she was completely fine.. and the next, she was smashing things. :rant:

Eventually, she turned on my dad... and they would have extremely bad fights, right in front of us kids. (theres 4 of us)

So my dad realized that he needed to do something.. the house wasnt safe anymore for us, or for him.. or for her!! She was going to do something soon and we had no idea what to do...

So my Dad called the cops and she was arrested for abuse... and now she doesnt live at home anymore. She's been gone all summer long.. and I became extremely worried as to where she was (the cops let her go until court)....

(oh.. and she missed court 3 times)

Im so scared as to whats going to happen... my family's gone to hell and I was just wondering what I could do...
Magickally towards this... what could help???

...sorry so long, guys.:ahhhhhhh:

Well Hi there neighbor! First off there isn't much you can do, but keep her in your thoughts and if you do get the chance to talk to her tell her that you still love her and miss her. Don't try to change her. Being someone who has gone through depression I know the ups and downs. It is hard to remember to take your medication, especially when you think you are feeling better. YOu get so cought up in living that you forget there is a problem. Ultimatly it is up to her to realize that she wants to be helped. Sadly this often is a long process and the person needs to hit rock bottom before they decide to make a change. Please keep in mind these are my own thoughts and your mother's situation may be different. I can only send you hope.

Hugs for you. Like Drisel said, keep her in your thoughts.:)

Such a horrible thing to have to live thru. I agree with keeping her in your thoughts and heart. If you really feel that you want to do magick, all I can suggest is that you send her a blessing to know that she is loved, with a wish that she find the help she needs when the time is right for her to do so.

Good luck!
