I had to quit my job in order to take care of my dad because my mom left and said she wasnt coming back. The people she was staying with figured out that she needs alot of help and ask her to leave. I got her a plane ticket back here and she stayed two days with my dad in a trailer on my property and every time I went to give him meds or check on him she was yelling and screaming and calling him names. She was also going on about what a horrible person I was. I was taking her to be evaluated at a mental health facility after I had had enough and she did not want to go . She yanked my head back by my hair while I was driving slamed the car into park while I was doing 60 mph punched me kicked me pinched me and biteme. I called the law and they called an ambulance and she punched the ambulance driver. They btouhgt her to the ER to be evaluated and they dicharged her. She was not allowed to come back here but my dad who has demntia wants to go back to there house to live with her. I do have an attorney and I know what the right thing to do is but this is very hard for me. I want to just cry and scream at her and him too. Please give me feed back

Once you know you are doing ok. you could ask your doctor for help. Professionals use what they call "theraputic lies" or fiblets to get patients to do what they need to do. Like how to get your mother to receive the help she seems to desperately need. I can't quite understand why she was not admitted to the psych unit after her violent outbreak. Did you file assualt charges? Same for your Dad. Do you have a geriatic center in hospital near you. A full physical and mental evaluation, might help you know what exactly you are dealing with.
Let us know how you are doing. Wishing you a good outcome.
