[QUOTE="WiseChoices, post: 751331, member: 24254"] It's ok to cry and really feel those feelings .Allow the sadness and grief to wash over you . Imagine yourself as a large Boulder in the ocean and the sadness washes over you, in waves, and you let it, and remain standing. Sounds like your youngest GD is addicted to the married man as well as substances .She is seeking salvation outside of herself and is grabbing on to anything and everything that she thinks may make herself feel good. It's all fleeting, none of it will work because her answers are all inside of her. There is absolutely nothing you can do for her while she is in this confused state . If she doesn't know about Narcotics Anonymous , you may want to mention these 12 step meetings to her WHEN she feels low and calls you in that state. Leave the footwork to her . You deserve to find time for yourself now and lavish the love, concern, and care you have given your GDs to yourself now. You are done raising them. It is up to then them now. Go on your trip, make her leave the house. It is your home, your rules, your boundaries. And try to keep your mind on you and your needs while you are gone . After raising children and grandchildren , it is your turn! Sending much love. [/QUOTE]
