<prompt> Human: My mother has schizophrenia and OCD and was almost homeless. She does not get along with any of her siblings as most of them have mental problems of their own or from years of feuding so she cannot stay with any of them. So that leaves me married for 5 years with a child or my brother fresh relationship to take care of her.We live in a rapidly growing expensive city Nashville, TN so housing here is not cheap even for studios1 bedrooms. She makes only 770 a month from disabilitySSI which my brother and I could supplement a little but not much.I am taking care of her for the meantime until we can figure out a more permanent solution but it wont last long because her illness is putting a strain on my family my wife has to deal with her all day while I am at work. Does anybody know of any programs that help out with the mentally disabled? Everywhere I look seems to be way over anything affordable. Thanks.EDIT: Thanks for all the great suggestions. My main goal is to get her TN residency and everything transferred to TN then Ill find her a new doctor and caseworker. Hopefully I will be able to find her a low-income home to stay in. I will probably give an update in a few weeks for future reference.Assistant: Get her a caseworker if she doesnt already have one: Im assuming shes not compliant with her meds? That might be difficult to get her into a shared living arrangement or halfway home...Human: She actually started weening off of them. She said they dont help her at all but she is very manic without them. She is still technically a GA resident so I might have to get her residency changed before I can take this path, but it is still very helpful, thank you.Assistant: People with bipolarschizophrenia always think meds dont help mainly because they feel SO good manic.My uncle constantly cycles and each manic episode is worse and worse and his medication become less effective when he goes back on. If shes living with you, Id make it conditional she follows doctors orders 100 - for her well beingHuman: I agree. Im at a disadvantage though because she really doesnt have any consequences if she doesnt obey as the only other option is to literally kick her to the curb until I can find a solution, and I dont want to do that.Assistant: Many antipsychotics come in the form of a monthly injection for just this reason. Can you get her to a doc who will inject her with one?Human: I have not heard of the injection form before. Im in the process of trying to get her TN residency because TN has its own special version of medicaid not sure her current one will work here so once thats taken care of I can get her to a doctor.  <response>: TN didnt take the Medicaid expansion, so its indigent services are pretty bare-bones; mental health care is nearly nonexistent, there are some pretty nice web pages but in terms of real-world care you may not find you can get your mother the help she needs. I would advise you to seriously reconsider your plan and, at least in the meantime, find her a private practice shrink you and she can work with.
