I am 33 years old. I am in serious need of help. I am facing going to prison for stealing. I have been in and out of jail for the past few years. I have Bi-polar, OCD and borderline personality. I have tried to commit suicide several times. I have lost custody of all my children. I don't have a job. I have very little hope. What can I do to avoid going to prison? Is there any inpatient treatment available? Thank you.
