[QUOTE="PatriotsGirl, post: 564561"] I haven't talked to her for a couple of days now, but I do know she is alive through phone records. I have done some looking online and I do realize that this could be a meth induced phychosis. There would be no telling her that, of course. I don't know how to handle. She needs to be back in rehab, but there will be no telling her that, either. I don't know what to do... This is our law for having someone committed: "For inpatient care, a person must be in need of involuntary treatment and (1) be an imminent danger to self/others, as evidenced by recent overt acts or expressed threats of violence; or (2) be unable to care for physical health and safety so as to create an imminently life-endangering crisis and in need of involuntary treatment." She has not acted or threatened anyone with violence. She is not suicidal. Her life is not in imminent danger from being a drug addict. I don't know that I have a leg to stand on.... I think she was supposed to be in court today so there will be a warrant for her arrest. Kathy, you know which lake she would have been referring to. I did a Google search for shots fired in the area and something did come up, but from over a week ago and there was also a stabbing - police think the two incidents were related... So I am thinking either she [I]is[/I] playing me - perhaps she needed a reason to no longer be in rehab but didn't want to lose her family at the same time, so she came up with this story. I mean, how could I force her to stay somewhere if her life was in danger there?? Or she really believes these people are after her in which case why wouldn't she jump at a new phone/phone number?? Thank you everyone for sticking by me and not just telling me I was completely idiotic to believe her story. The realist in me is starting to come back... [/QUOTE]
