Father is 58 years old, manic all my life with undiagnosed Bipolar & Aspergers, how to get him help?

He is definetely bipolar... He has an identical twin with very similiar issues, but they dont talk because my father is ANGRY all of the time Argumentative and irritable





My Grandmother was Manic Depressive and abusive... He was with me as well (i'm 25 now)


His sister was suspected to have suffered from Aspergers... and he has clear signs of that as well





He is almost 60 and flies into a rage over paranoid ideas small problems... He is extremely paranoid!


I am afraid he is going to kill himself driving 60 miles on rural roads that are very windie its just too dangerous..





Because of his bipolar he makes completely innappropriate decisions is still verbally abusive to my other family members (sister, mother, grandchildren) no moments are ever enjoyed! there is no happiness...





His aspergers causes him to have one sided conversations which has isolated him from friends/family/relatives %26amp; his last remaining friend as well recently





He has no one to talk to, he lives alone in the middle of nowhere he gets sad and depressed, more often he is manic though...





How do i convince him to get help?? i live in a different state... Thankyou for your help!





ALSO! my mom, sister are no help, they are narcissists they arent willing to help him get the help he needs.. Even though he is causing the whole family pain suffering and unrestFather is 58 years old, manic all my life with undiagnosed Bipolar %26amp; Aspergers, how to get him help?
You can do nothing for your dad unless he wants to see a psychologist or counselor. It doesn't seem fair but that is a fact. The only exception to this is if your father tries to physically harm someone or himself, then he may be comited for obsevation. Good luck.
