    Hi and welcome.
    Can I ask why you are trying to get her off medications? Surely getting her to see her doctor/psychiatrist would be better for a medication review? My husband uses mindfulness and meditation alongside his medication and although he hates having to take his meds he knows that it's far better than the alternative...
    Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!

    Hy Suzi,

    Am not trying to get her of meds, I just trying to get a some alternate help, she is seeing a psychiatrist, and taking medications too as she has had a relapse hence I feel the meds are not helping enough, I am the one who is keeping tab, that she takes them on time and does not suffer, As mentioned trying some alternate treatment as in activities or meditations that can help her be calm and get back to being normal...

    No No dont get me wrong her meds are all on..... none are stop.....just looking for some help as alternate treatment, I will not let her stop the medications till dr's confirm its safe...

    Hi Robbin, it’s great that you’re willing to help your sister and that she is able to talk to you - you’ve obviously got a strong relationship. Just a note, can you make sure she’s aware that certain treatments (eg some herbal supplements) can interfere with some medications?
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.
