What to do when all members in your family seem to have some kind of mental issue and refuse to deal with it. In my father my grandmother and sister seem to have some kind of BPD. My mother is hyper anxious and manipulative. I don't know know what to do. They are all extremely stubborn and don't change their ways. I feel trapped and alone.

Hi @inthequeue , have you tried talking to a counsellor or a therapist? It might help you unload some of the issues that you see in your family. You may not be able to change them , as the choice to change comes or is made by that individual. Only then they would work on the changes they want to make. But you are willing to explore and talk about yourself because you made this choice and it takes awareness and courage to make this choice. They are many good listeners here at 7 cups. You could message them anytime to share, to unload or just to have a chat.
