[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 707710, member: 18958"] I think you are a Mother who cannot bear that her child suffer, 37 or 7. Anxiety disorder and depression are major mental illness. That still does not mean you should bail her out. If she is not answering calls, I would let her be. Do you want to write more about her, her circumstances, your relationship, so that we understand the context? I agree with Walrus. My own son has been making better choices, progressively better. So I am helping him to a point. But he still pushes it, and wants me to enable him sometimes. I find that it gets easier to distinguish between enabling and support, and that I am able to provide support, and better catch myself (in the act) of enabling. I think you are taking the right steps: therapy, Coda, and going to bed! I am glad you are here. I hope you keep posting. It helps. [/QUOTE]
