5. Her Mental Illness Isn't Your Fault
and if you're beyond your early 20s, they're little chance you'll become mentally ill. Even if you did, like in a rare circumstance of being lost in a jungle for months or being severly traumatized, you would still have a great chance of recovery.

The worst type of mental illness is early-onset mental illness. My guess is your relative was affected at an early age. They are very difficult to treat so don't feel like you've failed either.
