We ended up sending our kid to residential treatment - twice. It really did help. But like i said in an earlier post, it’s an ongoing struggle. Periodically suicidal and still gets hospitalized periodically - in fact just finished a month long inpatient, two parts of which were involuntary, and as you know it has to be really bad for insurance to pay for a month. Still medicated and not really a functional adult. But still alive.

I still have a hard time not being really angry at that doctor who didn’t listen. I feel like that was a turning point down a bad path and the doctor could have prevented it. [/quote]
Thank you for sharing. I can only imagine what you went through and what you are feeling now, as you seem to have been dealing with it longer.

Especially before a kid is 18 or before when they decide they don’t want parent’s help any more, we absolutely feel it’s on us to not give up and give her every advantage. Her inability to open up which limits the help she gets, we feel is not intentional but just yet another symptom of the problems she needs help with. She and we are yet to unjam that door to recovery. The good thing is she does want help and willingly goes to providers.

We are looking at residential care too. Deciphering, evaluating them is ten times harder. We are talking to one in WI, among others. Big commitment, minimum one month. They said could go up to 3 months. Basic rate is thousand a day. Insurance will pay, but not sure if it’s 100%. [/quote]
