So my mum is depressed. She keeps talking about running away.

She keeps saying things like
"I know everyone hates me",
"I'm not a bad person you know".
Yet no one is saying she is bad so it makes no sense for her to say things like this.

She spoke to her sister (my aunt) about wanting to run away and my aunty told her to see her doctor. So she got really angry shouting "I'm no psychiatric"

She then came into the living room where I was watch a film and started saying the same sort of thing about how she has done nothing wrong and I reassured her that I know she has not done anything wrong.
She said "you all think that I am a drunk but I am not I only drink to numb the pain" (i think she drinks too much but she is not an alcoholic....yet)
I said "do you not think that that is bad?"
she said "everyone at work does it"
I highly doubt everyone at work does do it.

I suggested that she go see her GP. She got really defensive and was like:
"why so she can give me more drugs" (she has taken anti depressants for years)
I said "well yes if it helps, or she could refer you for therapy"
She said "I don't need therapy this is all your dads fault" (evey time she is like this it is always someone else's fault, granted my dad is an ideot but I think it's got more to do with her coping skills than his actions)
She continued to say "every one thinks I have a psychiatric problem I don't my life is just ****"
Then she started crying.
I said "if you don't have a mental health problem then why you getting so upset"

She couldn't anwser.

There was a long silence then I went to my room because I really didn't know what else to say.


Anyone experience similar on a regular basis? How do you cope?

I feel like I should do something but she won't accept she has a problem so I don't know what I can do?
She has been like this my whole life. She has normal periods but then it all flares up again. It's never ending.
