[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 429289"] What TL said sounds good to me. Especially if she is appropriate (only if she appropriate) brief text messages or messages on FB seems like a reasonable way to stay in partial contact with an 18 year old, leaving the door partially open. I am a big believer also in letting your child know (if you can afford to do this) that you are willing to pay or help pay for mental health therapy and/or drug treatment (as long as your child is willing to go and you can verify that they are REALLY going). But if YOUR therapist has suggested you detach, well, I think you should very seriously consider this. This is for your own good mental health and likely for your younger daughter's as well. Think of what you enjoy doing...what makes life feel good....be productive, happy and move forward as best as you can. [/QUOTE]
