Is it even possible?

This friend of mine told me about these schools for mentally ill people, including social anxiety and even just depression. They are both schools to get your diploma and they help you with your problem, you actually live at them too. It sounds soo nice at the thought of living at a school place with other people like you and finally being able to socialize, get help, and start getting my life better, it sounded sooo awesome. But obviously it'll be super expensive..

But my friend told me that the Department of Education(USA) is actually responsible for people under 21 getting their schooling done. She said that they will actually give you a grant to go to one of them schools, they will pay for it. But I looked on the site and couldn't find anything about it, she said I should call a local place and get information on it, but I'd need to tell my mom then. So I wanna know if this is even possible before I have to tell my mom, she knows... basically nothing. So all of a sudden telling her I wanna leave and go to a school like that... that would be kinda awkward and stuff...

Just so you know, I'm 18, dropped out of high school long ago, severe social anxiety, and depression. So is this even possible? Am I even qualified?

Would you really want to be around mentally ill people 24/7.. ? I don't know if I could handle that myself.

well I think that if you are over 18 the goverment is not responsible because it is only a law for minors to go to school. I'm also pretty sure that you can't get a complete grant for a school like that, I went to a lot of places similar to that.. reform schools, phyciatric hospitals with schools, programs... most of them don't have good school system and usually your insurance and such doesn't pay for it. The only time it is payed for that I know of is if you are sent there by penalty from court or from dr phil or something of that sort.
Of course there is always different situations and stuff so check into it.

Pssh, I'm sure you can find something in Canada. I wouldn't be suprised if you could find more and better ones in Canada.

I read online, it said something about them being responsible up to a certain age, I think the age is determined by the state. Pretty sure it's 21 for mine. I don't know, it just sounded neatly awesomely sweet is all. Oh well *add another to his fantasy jar*
