Answer

XXXXXXXX,

 

It is unlikely that a private psychiatrist would be able to see you on such short notice. I would suggest instead that you ask your daughter to either go to a free-clinic, a walk-in clinic, a crisis center or your local hospital. They will do a brief assessment there, help restabilize her on medication, and also help arrange for longer-term follow-up care with a private psychiatrist as necessary.

 

It also sounds like it might be a good idea for your daughter to seek psychotherapy to help her manage her ADD symptoms and to set healthy and appropriate boundaries in her relationship with her boyfriend.
