How to convince my 20 year old to stop signing treatment order (w/response)

[Guest guest]

this will be the 4th one, i am convinced she has been misdiagnosed and should

not be taking these drugs, they are making her worse, but she cannot see that -

she cannot focus, cannot concentrate, always forgetting and losing things, not

making proper decisions, i had sole custody since she was 5 years old, but

hospital ignored my power of attorney, made father substitute decision maker and

put her on the treatment order, i don't want her on meds for life, its not good

for her

she has been so brainwashed by her father and the hospital

any help or advice appreciated

** Hi ,

Sadly, there really is no way to stop her. You've already tried pointing

out to her that she is only made worse by these drugs and she can't see it. The

problem is each time she is off them she crashes and burns because she comes off

them too quickly. This leads her to believe she needs them. Even if she was to

agree to give it a try she would probably seek the guidance of her doctor. This

doctor would bring her down off the drugs too quickly causing her to go into

crisis and further reinforcing in her mind that she " needs " the drugs.

Until people really want to be off these drugs there is no chance to

successfully get them off them. Hold on to our site for the day she decides to

do this. We can help.
