[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 531765, member: 1233"] Contact a local university with a psychiatric dept. Ask if they have any master's students studying addiction who would be willing to come stay for a week with your daughter, just as a touchstone and to keep an eye on the home, for that time. often the dept secretary will know of students who need money and they or a prof who is teaching classes dealing with addiction can find someone to help you. I would NOT go for a bachelor's student unless it is non-traditional -older- student with much experience. A doctoral or master's student would be much better. You can also ask the therapist if she has any ideas or knows anyone with a long track record of sobriety that you could pay to stay there and keep an eye on the house and be there for difficult child. Otherwise a hotel has to be the best option. sobriety is difficult child's responsibility and not yours. She hs to be able to call for help when she needs it, and whle this is a strong trigger, it is still her problem and not yours. How much effort is she putting into solving this? [/QUOTE]
