[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bring her home and have her start a local job. Make an appointment with her primary care doctor, and with a therapist. Keep trying out jobs it until she finds something that sticks, there are plenty of jobs that do not require degrees. She can go to community college in a year or two after she matures and has her mental health under control. This is not the end of the world.[/quote] This. And I will tell you what to NOT do. Don’t pay her rent and allow her to live in an apartment. You need to have her move home and then monitor her mental health progress. Tie your financial support and privileges to her commitment to wellness and to maintaining a job that is at least 15 hours per week. [/quote]
