[QUOTE="Worndown68, post: 764098, member: 28726"] I understand, I have been to this forum to read and find support from others for many years but never posted anything. My daughters also started with weed and alcohol in their teens. I had absolutely no control over their behaviour and we have been estranged on and off since early 20s. Now they are 50! One has just admitted herself to a psychiatric hospital for 26 days, it was triggered by being asked to leave the friend who had housed her free for 18 months. The friend couldn’t put up with daughters explosive entitled behaviour and I feel guilty that she has had to go through the same trauma of telling her to leave as I have experienced it many times over the years. I am primarily blamed for absolutely everything. But I have really tried to inspire her to be functional and live a life she can be proud of. Provided housing, offered counselling, even employment but nothing has worked out. Now she is going to have ECT and I do hope it helps her. I am sure she is terrified even at 50 she was scared to go for standard mammogram alone. Then she posted on FB that she has Ca but I don’t think that is true. Both daughters have proclaimed they have Ca many times since teenagers but it hasn’t been true. I am now divorced recently and in no position to help her after her treatment. She is loud and abusive, I live in a small apt now. I can only pray for her, and her sister who is the Mother of my three grandchildren but still not sober. They seem to think I can, and should, house them again and pay for whatever they want or need. I can’t though. All I can do is pray for them both. [/QUOTE]
