I'm in need of how I can help my daughter.

Published

My daughter has paranoid personality disorder, she is 24yrs old and has a two year old daughter. She called me in a panic because she says "lois" is telling her that she is coming after her and the baby, I calmly talked her through of how I can help her. I am in need of any suggestions of how I can better understand what she is feeling. I did research of how I can help her and am at a loss of what I can do for her other than listen to her. I have mental issues myself and am very knowledgable of my own illnesses, but her illness is new to me. I will continue to read all I can about what she is experiencing so I can help her in any and every way possible....
