She gets upset over everything to the point that she threatens suicide when she finds out she won't have her car for a week because the radiator is gone (even though my mom said she'd pay for the radiator to be fixed, $2-3,000). I should say that my sister drove into a rushing river of water at 35mph or so during a Florida torrential downpour, which tore off her front bumper and ruined her radiator as the bumper scraped under the car.
She refuses to ride in the same car as me or my mom, so if we go anywhere, we always have to take 2-3 cars. She wouldn't even ride with my mom when my mom went to get my g-ma's car for her. My mom had to ask her boyfriend to drive up with her so she could drive the car back home.
When she gets really stressed, she'll either have panic attacks or she will rock back and forth and compulsively grab her hands over and over. Sometimes she'll scream about how she thinks no one likes her ("not even the shrink, who I pay!"), how she thinks she is fat, how she always messes up and how she thinks I am perfect for some reason.
She has anti-anxiety medicine. She is only supposed to be taking 4 pills at a time. She took 12 yesterday (I mean, it won't hurt her, but still...). She threatens suicide every few weeks.
We had to get the doctor to sign a form saying she is mentally unsound so that she could get a teacher to bring school to her at home, since she hates school so much and got suspended because she refused to take off her hat and because she missed so many days her credits were going to be revoked if she didn't do community service.
My mom keeps giving into her (fixing her car, borrowing my g-ma's car so she isn't car-less next week, selling the house to send her to boarding school). Not giving in and finding that she is dead is horrible, but giving in to her does not help either. I don't see many options.
