[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 755755, member: 4152"] I only perused. Apologies as this is a critical situation that takes more time. but I see great replies and I can concur that I won’t allow our daughter with the same illness yours has to live in my home again. Ever. Very sad. It’s 24/7 constant chaos. It’s too hard on me. I would contact NAMI if you haven’t already. I understand NY is one of the better states in terms of mental health housing and care. I would gather every phone number you can for assistance for her. Perhaps set her in the right direction. consider...getting her a cell phone for emergencies if she doesn’t already have one. Set boundaries. If she is abusive ...set more. If it worsens...block her for awhile.Do not tolerate abuse. Very sadly/ tragically, an abortion might be appropriate in this case. I would consider paying for that if and only if it’s not against your beliefs and you take her there and directly pay. Review...I personally would say no to her moving back into the home. Set boundaries. Get her numbers to every agency that might be of help. Get a good contact at NAMI. Consider helping her get a phone if she doesn’t already have one. I believe you said you have a therapist? If so...this is great. Might call for an extra appointment. this has to be very stressful. Stay strong. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
