Drug Treatment Centers

My mother is an alcoholic and drug addict. She is committed to a treatment center, but they will not. Last week she cut her wrists and went to the emergency room (50 stabbing), but they let her go. I did not know until afterwards that she had done. How can I commit her if they do not want to go alone? When she tried to commit suicide again, can I commit her? Thanks. Go to your local court house. It is almost impossible to commit an adult. Dr. telling a danger to themselves and others. It may depend on the state where you live - I would think that the laws are different - it is very strange to me that the hospital gave her, after she was injured, so - which (God forbid) she hurt herself again - the personal is I sue the hospital for negligence! Obviously your mother is very worried and need help, I would be more in your family participating in the crusade to help her, your father, grandparents, sisters, brothers etc. I if you know that is providing their drugs - I would call the police and report as drug traffickers, right in your life - if you can find alcohol in the home - which discharge into the drain, taking pills and knives, etc. and hide them or keep them in a lock boxtell you need it to be healthy, if not himself -! Tell her to you and you need help at this difficult time, I tried to kill me twice in my life after 10 years I'm finally in the clear (I had problems with drugs) I know how you feel now, and I think she do not think anyone but them now - say it can not do to dig his own mother - who need help, no matter how impossible it seems now. If you're in the U.S., consult NAMI.org (national association of mental illness). They have plenty of tips for families attempting to commit or to speak with a family member for treatment. I think this approach is flattering and more efficient than the confrontational approach, shot, because it dramatically on television, if you make your mom and she can not talk in therapy is indicated, they may never forgive you, so be prepared, if my toilet you ever committed myself to suicide (I have bipolar really bad and not medicine that helps me a lot) I probably would never forgive him. It's like a rape to get treatment against your will. Soooooooooo, you have to do it, sometimes you really have to, but do not expect any gratitude for them. You will be comforted by the fact that you may have saved her life. nami.org. You have a lot of contact info for you, and local groups as you can. Good luck! Drug and alcohol abuse may self-medicate for underlying depression / bipolar. It is a difficult process to have someone committed, especially if they were released from hospital after asuicide trials. You can try an intervention.
