Hi lc,
That's a tough question. I feel that if the person would be a danger to themselves or others by not getting help, then yes, I wouldn't hesitate to step in and get them help. But there are circumstances where you just have to step back and let your loved ones make their own choices. It's a hard thing to do either way.
I guess if it's someone I really love, I follow my heart.
