[QUOTE="Bean, post: 457469, member: 8620"] Well big hugs to you. I'm sure it wasn't easy, and living like this in chaos isn't easy, but you did the right thing. Witzend gave some good advice about the counseling and such and coping with the PTSD. I'm dealing with that and it isn't fun. We turned our daughter in on my birthday. She was high, out of control and we were fed up. The police were called and they took her to jail. It was horrible, heart-wrenching and I'll never forget it. But it wasn't our fault. And the decisions she continued to make after that weren't our fault. The consequences were hard to deal with, and I don't know if they were helpful. But... sometimes I think maybe the jail time slowed her down, kept her safe. I don't know, 'cause she's still going through a lot of stuff. But it sounds like your daughter needs a safe place to be, to clean up a bit. Wishing you well. [/QUOTE]
