My mother had mental illness years ago. She eventually committed suicide.

We took her to every doctor we could, and it destroyed us financially.

Through all of it, I could tell the doctors were just grasping at straws in the dark.

The went from pill to pill, in every conceivable mix.

I quickly realized the "experts" didn't have a clue about the human mind, or the human soul.

Sorry about your Mom. My father-in-law was given Zoloft in his mid 80’s due to him feeling low about aging, he had hallucinations while on the drugs. Would see dancing bands of brightly colored merrymakers swarming around him while he was outside and then they would move inside his home with him and they would change into dark clothes. He quit taking the medication and the hallucinations went away. He died at 89 from Congestive heart failure.

I'm sorry to hear about your Mom. I had a good friend whose Husband did the same thing, and did it while her and her kids were in the house. They had to find him that way. He was a lost soul who got mixed up in a religious cult and became so confused and depressed that he ended it all.

I'm usually pretty skeptical about such things as demon possessions and all, but I truly believe, based upon the accounts I've heard and some of the things I've seen, that it is indeed possible and could account for a large part of the cases we hear about today.

I’m sorry to hear about your mother. Her pain must have been awful. And then harder on all of you. My prayers are with you. And you’re right - our “experts” don’t have a clue.
