OK well...
OK, well in ref. to my previous post for advice about SD.... DH did take her to the psychiatrist and he referred her to the hospital. As luck would have it, her therapist works there part time in the intake dept. She saw SD and DH and after spending hours with them, said that she didnt feel SD was a threat to anyone at the time she was there, so they wouldn't keep her. She told SD to stop playing games and to get her head out of BMs butt. I love it.....finally someone other than me tells her that!!!! Therapist also told DH to get his head out of his butt and start parenting the child and stop putting it on me. YEAH!!! Maybe now he will take care of his own kid..... Oh, one can dream, can't they? 
Anyway, the therapist also told DH and SD that I am the only hope she has for a mother figure since BM is mentally ill. (No guilt there, right) I still dont like her and I'm not at all sure I will ever be able to trust her ever again. Im not even sure I want to! You guys were a great help to me, and I truly appreciate it!!!

Wow.. I am surprised the
Wow.. I am surprised the therapist didnt take her threat seriously, even after the comments she made, and the fact that she had razor blades hidden in her possession.
Make sure you put this in writing and leave it with the tape at work.. so that if anything were to EVER happen then the therapist could be held responsible as well.
What a quack. Sorry.. I was really hoping that a therapist would be horrified at her comments and behavior.
Keep a Journal
HI, I'm also surprised at the therapist's response.
I think it would be a good idea to keep a journal - a diary of any off the wall antics from SD. Document everything. Date and time. Just the specifics. You'd like to definetly keep it where it won't be found. Not only will this help to present to a therapist or psychiatrist in the future, it will also be therapeutic.
All the best to you!
In my experience..
their bark is always worse than their bite. Not only that, bipolar individuals usually show no restraint in saying EXACTLY what their dysfunctional mind is thinking at the moment. There have been numerous split second moments that I thought of choking BM - I never actaully said it though....
I'm glad that you had a professional assess the situation. It's always worth it when seeking piece of mind. Good luck.

VALIDATION
validation is an incredible thing, it seems to step in just as we feel we are truly the only sane people in our world, I am so happy that therapist was there to say what will never be really heard from your lips by DH's ears.
Robinson3433 , why should you feel guilt , becasue you fell in love with her father and are actually a healthy human being ,where as BM is a waste of oxygen and your own DH was called down by this therapist I am dying to meet!
Proceed with caution!
Hi, I am glad they feel she is ok but I would still be on guard and definitely take her seriously. I can't believe she can say and do that and they say she is ok?!
