My wife (27) who I (26) have been with for 12 years is currently going through her second psychotic episode in 4 years. She got really stressed out due to family problems, losing her job, recently finding out she’s adopted and losing her mother in 2022. She hasn’t slept much in 4 days and today I took her to the mental hospital so she could get help. She wrote many things down in a book describing her thoughts and I feel so sad that she’s hurting and there’s nothing I can do about it. When she had her first episode I supported her through it while she was still living with her mom at the time. Now that were out on our own, I can’t help but feel useless. I need advice as to what I can do. There’s so many more details that I can give that could have led to this but I just want her to go back to her normal self, the person who would laugh with me and have fun with me with no care in the world. I don’t know what to do. I feel like I didn’t do enough to protect her.
