If she is undergoing proper treatment for the severity of her bipolar disorder, whether that is therapy, medication, or some alternate, approved treatment, then yes.

Yes. I have been to see a psychologist for help with my 69 year old mother-in-law, who, according to my husband, was diagnosed with bipolar disorder in the 80's.

Without seeing my MIL personally, but hearing about her total lack of boundaries and abusive history with her own children and what she has subjected me to, she believes she is suffering from borderline/narcissistic personality disorder.
