[QUOTE="catherinecherub, post: 660059"] I would leave well alone and keep out of discussions about her possible illnesses. All you need to do is to accept that your brother has chosen this lady and it is really up to him how the relationship progresses. She may be one of those people who invents illnesses to gain attention or she may genuinely have Type 2. Not all TYpe2s take medication . With regard to the bipolar disorder, her behaviour would be erratic as she would have mood swings and periods of depression. As you do not have any interaction with her, then you would not be able to gauge what is going on. There are plenty of people with bipolar who will not accept a diagnosis and have to be sectioned when they become a danger to others or themselves. We often do not like prospective partners that other family members pick but getting involved will have two possible outcomes. Your brother may dig his heels in and carry on , possibly resulting in a split from you, or accept that what you are saying is right. It could go either way. Just be there for him if it all goes wrong would be my advice. [/QUOTE]
