[QUOTE="witzend, post: 365318, member: 99"] Any intake appointment that he has will start with a psychiatric evaluation. It's like taking a medical history. You can't treat the patient until you know what is wrong with them. Usually the first appointment will be an oral history accompanied by an MMPI which the patient can either do in the lobby or take home. You and your other son can't make him do this. He has the information he needs to get started, he'll have to make the call and get it done. Even you could force him to go, you can't force him to participate. If he wants to change, he will.
