[quote=Anonymous]I would inquire about social services agencies that can help you. What you need is a case manager who can assess her needs and make suggestions so you don't risk upsetting her and setting off dysfunction. Wherever she ends up she will need a case manager checking on her. When I lived in a studio apartment building as a young adult, the neighbors let me know the woman in the apartment next to me had a case manager and if there were any issues they had her number. The woman had schizophrenia (she gave CM permission to share). I was so glad they let me know. I was kind and respectful to her, but she had some very odd social skills and occasionally uncomfortable boundaries and it helped me to be understanding and not afraid. I never had any issues to report because I knew the issue and so I had already researched online and could set boundaries in a respectful and gentle manner.[/quote]
