Sounds about like what I would expect, honestly. Not sure where your from (obviously a place where you expect a lot more than what you got for her care) but homeless mentally ill or addicted run the streets where I live (not a good neighborhood). Can't go two blocks without seeing the poor souls begging or talking to themselves, or being atopped by security officers or police to be told to get lost.

Imagine what it's like for people who don't have family, loved ones, a home... They don't even get what she got. And considering that, it could've been way, way worse. She is so lucky to have a great guy that personally cares for her and loves her.

That's the typical us mental health care for ya. The new standards for mental health care, and long term help for those who aren't fit to go home yet... Are abysmal. for the mentally unstable... Mental health facilities are mostly made up of prisons, these days.

As for long term care, they are more interested in making the family of the ill to figure it out even though they are getting paid to treat the person.... Which takes me back to the lucky ones who even have family to care and figure it out for them
