[QUOTE="DDD, post: 525208, member: 35"] As you know I follow your posts closely and truly hope and pray some positive resolution comes before too long. I do think, however, that your statement "I think she wants to die" is inaccurate and likely is a thought that magnifies your fears for her future. in my humble opinion it is very very rare for a s.a. difficult child to think like that unless they have predetermined serious mental health issues that include that previously stated goal. The vast majority of users who are young seek instant gratification, the next opportunity for fun, access to more alcohol or drugs, a lifestyle that includes freedom from responsibility. I don't believe that many grasp the reality of potential incarceration, potential disease, potential danger. Really I believe that they want to go with the flow that is most enticingly available. With very caring hugs I hope you don't allow yourself to worry about her survival in that way. She is making frightening choices. She may end up paying consequences sooner or later. She is like all out difficult child's in my humble opinion...she wants what she wants when she wants it and sadly, so far, doesn't even grasp that she is getting further and further down a road with few options. Meanwhile you are making progress in detaching and the healthier and stronger you are the more prepared you will be to face whatever you have to face. Hugs DDD [/QUOTE]
