Dr. David Sack Says...
You would need to contact an attorney for legal rights in your state. In most states it is possible to do a 72-hour hold if someone is a danger to themselves or others, but nothing much beyond that.
Have you considered hiring a professional Interventionist who is certified? The right interventionist can make a huge difference.
