I actually feel pity for her. She's in the worst possible situation, she has serious problems but she tries to ignore them, she also ignores advice and she constantly complains about a predicament for which she is the sole reason. Her life is sad.
For second I thought she may even be doing all this for sympathy but I don't know... All in all, not a very pleasant person and definitely not someone I'd like to spend time around, but that's just me.
She is an emo. If she won't get help and she denies she needs it. Get help from a local counselor to help her.
It doesn't matter what she says.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
