[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 665152, member: 18958"] The voices are as likely to have resulted from drug use, as the other way around. Depending upon the drug he uses, the voices can continue for a long time after cessation of drug use. Until he is clean for a while, it will be hard to really come up with a valid diagnosis. If you are talking about your 19 year old, he can receive all of the treatment he needs through the community mental health system. I think after 18 years old he is considered to be independent of your income. He needs to apply for SSI for mental illness, through Social Security and healthcare through the County. My son is in the same situation. He has been in a variety of inpatient treatment settings including long-term residential treatment, and it is all paid for. There is no other way anybody could afford it. He got SSI the first time he applied. You are not alone. [/QUOTE]
