[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 306840, member: 1514"] Welcome. I also have bipolar but my onset was childhood even though I didnt know it back then. I also have a son who had childhood onset bipolar. Suz and Witz are both right in that once a kid hits a certain age, and most certainly 18, things get problematic. I was rather lucky in that my kid always let me in on his psychiatric care. Even now he wants me with him at all his doctor appointments. Actually we are both signed as a people who can share information for HIPAA at doctor's offices. It works both ways...his docs can talk to me and mine can talk to him. You can tell your sister that while she cant actually force her dtr to get treatment or take medications, she can make that a condition of living at her house. Or a condition of some other luxury...say that cellphone she provides, or computer, or car privilege. There are many goodies that can be used. Carrots so to speak that can be dangled. [/QUOTE]
