Helping a family member get help. Where do we start?

I read your post and this is the best advice I can offer:

Do you have some kind of mental health facility in your area? You could always give them a call and explain the situation to them. They may be able to offer you some very valuable advice. Theres the CAM-H around where I live, so maybe somewhere like that that you could call...

Dear SimplyKG,

I am sorry to hear about your situation. I just have a few questions for you, and I will try to advise you as best as I can.

1. How old is this family member?
2. What is your relationship with this family member?

Any more details you can provide would be very helpful. I am about to go to bed, but I will be able to reply in the morning.

There are a wide variety of resources avalible on the internet that would be helpful to both yourself and your family member, links of which I will provide to you when I am able to post again tomorrow.

Also, please foward this e-mail adress to your family member.

brickunderground@hotmail.com

I am someone that will be able to discuss her issues/ "story" with her.

Thanks,
Mr. Yowler
