My dad was there for me those awful years my mom went off her meds. He was the rational parent, and he stopped her from doing a lot of the things she felt "compelled" to do. He worked a lot, so he couldn't prevent everything, but if he hadn't been there I can't imagine how fucked up I would be.
I'm sorry that your dad sucks. If you want, we can do a swap-thinger, and have my dad and your mom and be sisters. (this doesn't mean I like you, just that I sympathize and I wish we both could have better situations.)
