I’m Looking for a Mental Health Clinic That Can Deal With Addiction and Suicide in a Bi-Polar Teen?
Question by ………: I’m looking for a mental health clinic that can deal with addiction and suicide in a Bi-polar teen?
It needs to be around Cincinnati Ohio and it has to be a live in center. He is 18 years old and has recently been diagnosed as Bipolar, he hasn’t been able to be given proper medication because he is throwing weed and synthetic weed/incense into the mix. It makes him very emotionally unstable and he does whatever he think will pull him out of his depression. Typically, that means more drugs, or alcohol. He is out of control and has attempted suicide while high at least three times in the past month or two.
Also, his parents aren’t rich. Are there any things that can help them with the immense costs these places seem to carry? (I understand the costs, I just need a way to maybe help them out.)
He attends therapy once a week, but it isn’t enough… 🙁

I’m planning to do a documentary on rehabilitation centers. I was just wondering whether there are any drug rehabs around here that’ll allow me to shoot and interview some of the staff and the patients as well.

You should contact rehab centers directly; I doubt many of the staff / management spend a lot of time in this area.
