[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 292393, member: 7083"] difficult child is definitely a 'victim'; always has been. That's always been so hard for me because I do not do well with the victim mentality. MWM, I really think you're splitting hairs. I'm sure she doesn't like being miserable, but she doesn't dislike it enough to want to change her behaviors. There is no "pretending to feel like the world has done her wrong", she wholeheartedly believes it. In other words, nothing is her fault; it's always someone elses. Therefore, she doesn't have to change her behavior, everyone else does and, thus, she will always be miserable because everyone is not going to change their behaviors to suit her. She also refuses any and all medications. Period. For anything. When I've said to her that I want her to take the medications because I don't want her to be so unhappy, she responded with, "So? I'm not going to die." :hammer: [/QUOTE]
