[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 638580, member: 1967"] Things are really bad now. difficult child's last therapist emailed husband last night that difficult child had been in contact with her and that difficult child was really getting desperate. She claims that she is living on the street and the therapist said she thought difficult child was suicidal. The therapist tried to get difficult child to call 911 or tell the therapist where she was so that the therapist could call 911 but difficult child refused. She offered to go down to see difficult child today if difficult child would tell her where she was (the therapist is about an hour away from where difficult child is now). She also told the therapist that her phone was about to die and that she had no way to charge it. husband didn't see the email until this morning. He called difficult child and she answered. So much for not being able to recharge her phone. difficult child was sobbing and said she was "having to do things that she had never thought she would do." She keeps asking to come home for a "visit" while she figures out what to do. We all know what that would lead to. Once she was here, she would refuse to leave and we would have to go back to living with things under lock and key. I will never live like that again and husband told difficult child that. He told her that he would not talk to her again until after she called the therapist. The therapist mentioned to husband that she thought a group home would be appropriate at this point for difficult child. She would be much more knowledgeable than we are on how to make that happen. Of course, difficult child claimed that she wasn't using. I guess she forgot that we can see her insurance account and know about the additional xanax that she has been managing to get scrips for. difficult child is still claiming that no halfway house will take her because of her new diagnosis of epilepsy. I have a hard time believing that. Her therapist did confirm that her health insurance is very limited when it comes to finding treatment programs which we already knew. I hate this. Please help me be strong. Kathy [/QUOTE]
