The girl must feel pretty sick if she feels the need for mental assistance, I suppose it is a half way thing, one has to be a real goner before one is accepted in those institutions. She should not be treated as such if she is so ill and really needs some kind of help. Your daughter sounds the most helpful, but can she cope with the stress? It is a bad situation.

Being an addict and a alcoholic in recovery for the last ten years myself, it seems as though she is looking for love, and we all need love, but without knowing the rest of the story I cannot know why or where her parents are coming from, or her for that matter, but I can tell you how we addicts and alcoholics use and hurt those we love the most and the deepest. I wonder if she may need a recovery center more than she needs to check into a mental health center that may not have the time or the staff to give her the help she needs, but what I can tell you is that it is a long and hard process and that it is those closest to her who know, but for all I know it is those closest to her that caused the problems to begin with.

Although not a parent myself, I can only suppose that her parents are either totally sick of her antics and feel they can no longer "accommodate" her, or else they think that, by neglecting her at this time, they are "teaching her a lesson." Either way, she will more apt to slide backwards than to move forward. Sometimes tough love has an opposite affect. She definitely needs help, but her sources seem to be running thin . . .
