Summary: mother blames daughter for her latest bout with mental illness
You could have prevented this, her mother said furiously. If you had just stayed on the Wellbutrin, you would not be in this mess. You were crying at your desk at work every day? You should have known you needed help! I know you do not like me to talk about your weight, but you were getting heavier each time I saw you. But you seemed fine. Even when you called me on the phone when you were psychotic, you sounded so normal. But now you are a mess that I have to help clean up, because I love you.
