Suggest Treatment For Mental Instability

My daughter (21) studies in an Engg College at Ahmedabad (5th Sem.). She stays in an Private hostel as paying guest. We, her parents, reside in our home in NE India. She has been quite normal when she came home last vacation in July, 2010. In the last week of August she was down with viral fever & UTI. She was in the hospital from 2nd Sept. to 9th Sept. She started behaving quite unnaturally since 6th September. She first started lamenting that, due to her illness, a lot of money is being spent & her father is going to be poor. Then she started lamenting that she committed mistake in having an affair with a boy. She also told that the boy has threatened her. She started experiencing hallucination that her father is being beaten by police & goons. She told that the boy has told everyone that she was not a good girl. On 10th of Sept, when she was returning home by flight via Chennai, she fell sick at Chennai Airport. She was extremely drowsy & was subsequently hospitalised in Chennai. There she told that she had consumed 20 sleeping pills the night before though it was completely untrue. She was again sent to Ahmedabad with her mother on 19th Sept, 2010 to continue her study. She went to college on 20th but now she is bent on leaving the college & Ahmedabad. She has been telling that all the other students are neglecting her considering her a very bad girl, good students stopped talking to her, Boys are seeing her as a girl having bad character. Now she is telling that she cannot continue her study in the college with such humiliation. We believe that all these are her imagination only. But she is bent upon leaving the city & the college. What should we do?
