[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 725286, member: 19522"] Hi Again Rosanna, don't apologize, we ALL ramble here, it is a way to vent and get the frustration out, out, out. I had to look up effects of low cortisol, one of which is mental confusion. That is certainly not helping. But there are treatments I am right with you, if they would just get help. What can be done for someone who refuses help? It is not easy Rosanna, I am not going to sugar coat that one. Been through many a restless night. I have two daughters living out there. We are in Hawaii, so the weather is not too bad, but the idea of [I]what could happen to them[/I], is frightening. It is all compounded by the fact that they are adults and will do as they choose. When it gets overwhelming I pray. I listen to my to my body and rest when I need to. Stress is not healthy. The thing is that I have tried just about everything, had them come home, suggested rehab, [I]but they don't want to choose differently[/I]. Sigh. I am sorry for your aching heart, I know how it feels to feel helpless over a loved ones choices. I am glad that you posted. Others will come along, weekends are a bit slow most times. Take care and be very kind to yourself. (((HUGS))) Leafy [/QUOTE]
