[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 722239, member: 1963"] She refuses medications/counseling. If you go back, there's a long history of this type of behavior with this child, now adult, and her mother and grandmother. I don't doubt that she suffers from severe anxiety as her mother does. I do, too, and yes, it does make it very hard to handle school/work. But one can find work/shifts that keep people contact to a minimum. For example, I'm very good on the phone, and can handle rote contact face-to-face, such as cashiering, but absolutely cannot handle sales or collection work, etc. I excelled at phone technical support, though. She's going to have to be given no choice but to go to work, or gotten into a supervised living situation on SSI. One or the other. My "no choice" was wanting to get out of the house and move in with my boyfriend (husband to be) when I turned 18. To have the money to do that, I HAD to work. [/QUOTE]
