Have you discussed your reasoning for getting vaccinated with your siblings? If so, how have they responded? Do they understand your mom’s reasoning?

My mom was diagnosed with BD about 15 years ago, after being incorrectly diagnosed with (and therefore incorrectly medicated for) depression for the previous 10 years. Post BD diagnosis, my parents divorced, and I’ve had a lot of trouble coping with what I perceive as personality changes in my mom. According to her, she’s now on a medication cocktail that works. Do you have any suggestions or coping mechanisms for family members dealing with a loved one’s diagnosis?
