[quote=Anonymous]Except that such program does not exist. Or if it does it lasts for only 8 wks and anyway may be totally unaffordable.  So the message the Friend may get is I really think you guys need to do something (impossible) i.e. I disapprove of your family life.  I am all for open communication but make sure you have some idea what is out there and that it is not an impossibility. If the idea that OP has is to warehouse this young man in an institution forever so the family situation improves it might be important to know that institutions don't exist anymore since the deinstitutionalization movement. Not that this young man is beyond help. Maybe just ask the friend details about the residential settings so you can understand why they are hesitating. What I don't get about the residential center is how they can get the right mix of meds in 8 weeks. Meds can take that long to kick in but may not be the right fit so usually it takes longer. Maybe there are other residential facilities? [/quote]
