Default mental breakdown

My 22 year old daughter is suffering from some kind of mental breakdown.
History in brief: She is a very intelligent, bright, spiritual young woman. She graduated salutatorian of her high school, went on to a private college and received a BS in biology with a 4.0 and applied to veterinary school. She was denied from the 4 she applied to, at the same time as holding 4 partime jobs and greived the loss of two beloved pets. We practice mainly holistic medicine, although have not quite corrected a severe menstraul problem she has. On onset of menses, vomits, very pale, cramps which last several hours. She doesn't take any conventional medicines. Recently I remembered that we had her vaccinated at age 10 for rabies when she was bit by a cat. I didn't know better at that point!
she gradually was becoming erratic in her behavior and we had her urine tested for drugs to rule out any possibilities. She became delusional-thought employers were drugging her. Thinks people are spying on her. She can't work since she finally broke down and can't keep things straight in her mind. We have her under the treatment of a naturopath using herbs and acupunture to balance her. I think homeopathy should be considered. I need help ,please.
