[QUOTE="Sam3, post: 722245, member: 19290"] Shes an adult with issues. She doesn't get to continue living as a dependent because she chooses not to address them. I suggest conditioning the support you give her on going to therapy, and if prescribed medications, being compliant. And if/when she can handle society, increase the expectations to include movements towards independence. School, job, apartment. For social anxiety, I have read the gold standard is Exposure Response Therapy -- it can be tailored to overcoming anxiety in particular environments like school and work. It's not universally practiced, but therapists who deal with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) also use this. Second, is the more general cognitive behavioral therapy. First line medications are SSRI antidepressants. It's very common to have to try several before finding one that works well. Hopefully she will invest in her own well-being. But why should she if she doesn't have to? [/QUOTE]
