So what the f**k do I do? I have a feeling she doesn't really mean it or anything, but people say that if anyone even mentions it, regardless if they are kidding or not, is cause for concern.
I told my sister already and she said to keep an eye on her and tell her if her depression gets any worse. She doesn't work as she's pretty much retired from the workforce and is a full-time house wife living at my father's home. She's had a few fallout's with my father in the past, but they supposedly worked things out and they seem to be getting along pretty well now.
The real problem I think is that she doesn't really have any kind of life. Almost everyday is the same for her and all she has time for anymore is to read and/or browse the internets once in a while when she babysits my niece. She doesn't really have any close friends anymore except close family members since she retired.
Some of us told her that maybe she'd feel better if she came out of retirement and got a part-time job somewhere. Problem is, probably nowhere will hire her anymore because of her age and COPD.
Shit this sucks. I wish I could help her out, but there's not much I can do. Suggestions?
