Case of Julie Julie is a 42-year-old female who was released from prison after serving 12 years for drug-related offenses. She has been under the care of a mental health professional in some capacity since the age of 12. Eight years ago she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and has had problems maintaining compliance with her medication regimen. When she has been “off her meds,” she is prone to acts of self-harm and self-medicates with illicit substances. Part of her discharge treatment plan from prison involves seeing a mental health professional who can help to address her psychological health needs.
