[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd find your local NAMI chapter and find out what kind of community options there are to have someone visit this person. It's very hard to force someone into treatment that doesn't want to, but in some locations there are local adult services who can drop by. http://www.nami.org[/quote] I second this. The police should have a special unit for dealing with people in crisis. I can't remember the name of it. I would also continue to call the police. My sister, who is mentally ill, only got help after almost 20 years because I called the police on her and filed a police complaint. She was required by law to get help -- but that is the settlement we worked out. I know know about a non-relative whom you just want to avoid. But go thru the condo association too and document every complaint. They don't have the laws in place to dealing with serious mentally ill people and sometimes the only help is thru the police.[/quote]
