[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 660185, member: 11791"] Hi, and welcome. I don't know what problems your daughter faces. But from the brief description you give us, it doesn't sound like the problem is substance abuse. There is some form of mental illness at work here. I really feel for you, because getting help for mental illness is... touch and go. When you do get good help it is amazing what can be done. But a few days of in-patient doesn't do much. Who is she currently seeing? a psychiatrist for medications, or just the family doctor? is there a therapist/counselor involved? Has she had a formal risk assessment? And then... is this behavior new? or has it been going on since she was young? [/QUOTE]
