Sanilac County Community Mental Health

May 2022

I took my daughter there with my ex wife. We have joint custody, but my ex has physical custody. She was brought here after threatening to kill herself twice while in her moms care. We signed a paper stating that they needed both our opinions/ decisions to do anything with our daughters treatment. My ex changed the second appointment and I was never told. They prescribed my daughter some medication. I don't believe she needed it, so I called to complain and have it stopped until I could get in with them. I was told that even though I signed the paper, they don't care about my opinion and I am not allowed to have any say. Only her mother is allowed to talk to them regarding our daughter. I threatened to complain to higher ups, and was told that it doesn't matter, i will not have any say as our daughter doesn't live with me. My daughter is the complete opposite at my house compared to her mother's, but they do not care... Not only that, but her counselor just talked to me for the first time in 1.5 years, never returns my calls, or calls me with updates.
