[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 543543, member: 1967"] I would call the local NAMI office and find out what low income mental health care there is in your area. My daughter sees a psychiatrist and gets her medications from a local community health center. She only has to pay $5 copays for the medications and visits. There is also a sliding scale so the fact that you said your sister in law makes a decent income might mean she has to pay more than that but it would probably still be cheaper than self pay for regular mental health care. As far as her stealing from you, do what the others suggested. Do not let her alone in your house or even out of your sight while she is visiting. If she stole from you before, she will do it again. Finally, smoking incense is serious drug use. It could explain her depression and laziness. I would be very worried about your granddaughter. Have you noticed any signs of neglect? If so, I think you need to report it to CPS although I know it would be very hard for you to do. I'm sorry that you are going through this. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
