[QUOTE="lizthehopeful, post: 546234, member: 15056"] Lisa: Thank you for sharing all of that with me. I'm sure it's difficult for you to talk about and I really do appreciate it more than you know. I had gotten really good at detaching last year when I told her she couldn't come stay with me and she went to stay with her dad. While I KNOW that NOT enabling her is the right thing to do, the trauma of seeing my only child in the condition she is in right now has me wanting to CHAIN her to me... I feel like detaching and living my own life made things WORSE! While.. I also know that SHE is the only one that can turn her life around. Bad BAD feeling... I'm hanging tough for the moment. Doing my best to TRY to not obsess about her. She obviously doesn't give one **** about how I'm feeling.. you think I'd get a clue! [/QUOTE]
