Needing advice please how do I coax my 17 year old daughter outside

Hello @pollykelly, I hope you are both doing okay. Have they said how long the wait for the autism learning disability liaison team is?

They are coming to see her on the 16th June, I’ve been told it could be 4 weeks

It’s hard to say what’s changed, tho her dads irregular contact doesn’t help.
The Camhs support is fine but it’s not practical help.
I’ve been told the referral could take 4 weeks

I hope things go well on the 16th @pollykelly. How are you doing? 

pollykelly

Up and down, it’s just been going on so long and I want to see some progress

This sounds like such a long and difficult process for you @pollykelly any updates yet?

I can’t remember what I last told you.
we have pretty much rock bottom, trying to claw back some as semblance of normality.
on the 8th Aug I had to call the police, as Hannah was so difficult and unmanageable.
they were great but nothing much has happened since.
hannah has been making me sit in the car like the day the police came round.
now I’ve been sent to my room, it’s like roles have been reversed.
social care still dragging their feet.
im having Camhs home treatment/crisis team in 2/3 times a week but mostly she won’t let them in, or not for long.

Hello @pollykelly

I'm so sorry to hear that you had to get the police involved. Have you asked whether CAMHS have a cancellation list? If you can have them come in at any time, it may be worth enquiring about. Hopefully she let's them in and I do hope they can offer extra support for you Please keep us updated.

We have Camhs LD involved, they aim to come 3 times a week but with people on leave it’s difficult as sometimes they have never even met my daughter, plus she is only allowing people in the house for a short time before kicking them out.
it’s the Camhs crisis/home treatment team that are visiting.

I hope the visit(s) go well! How are you keeping?
