Diagnosed For ADD In Childhood, Hole In Left Temple. Diabetic, Doesn T Mix Well, Flirtaous With Men. Help?

i HAVE A DAUGHTER WHO IS 20 YEARS OLD. SHE WAS DIAGNOISED AS HAVING SEVERE ADD WHEN SHE WAS 9 AT 18 SHE INFORMED ME SHE WAS TIRED OF PILL AND WILL NOT TAKE HER MEDS.. SHE FELL OFF OF A PORCH WHEN SHE WAS 7 AND KNOCKED A HOLE IN HER LEFT TEMPLE ABOUT THE SIZE OF THE END OF A WOMANS PINKY. HER PERSONALITY CHANGED. i CONTINUED TO WEEK ANSWERS BUT NO ONE HAD ANY. NOW AT 20 SHE CAN'T HOLD DOWN A JOB. SHE ALWAYS SMELLS. DOESN'T SOCIALIZE WELL. PEOPLE FIND HER TO BE VERY SWEET AT FIRST THEN ANNOYING AND HATEFUL. SHE LIES CONSTANTLY EATS EXCESSIVELY. SHE IS DIABETIC, SHE WILL NOT TAKE HER MIEDICATION OR SHOTS NOR WILL SHE WATCH HER DIET. SHE IS VERY FLIRTAOUS WITH MALES TO THE POINT SHE SETS UP MEETINGS WITH MEN ON THE INTERNET. SHE SEES DANGER IN NOTHING. SHE LIVES ON HER OWN AND RATHER THAN WASH DIRTY DISHES OR PUTTING SOMETHING IN THE TRASH, SHE WILL TAKE IT AND HIDE IT IN CLOSETS OR CABINETS. IT IS A HEALTH HAZARD. WHEN CAN i SEEK HELP i KNOW ALL OF THESE BEHAVIORS CANNOT SIMPLY BE FROM THE ADD.

You need to consult Psychiatrist as well as Diabetologist for necessary advice and treatment She needs counselling with a Behavioural therapist as it is a mixture of manifestations.
