[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 735198, member: 19522"] Wish, Weekends are usually slow on CD. You are not [I]losing[/I] it, you are expressing your anxiety and deepest fears, and that is [I]healthy.[/I] It is so very hard to see this happening and have absolutely no control over what your daughter decides. I lived it for years and I understand how hard it is. Take deep breaths and get whatever you are feeling out. Cry, yell, however you can, [I]let it out[/I]. Make a plan for yourself to go see a counselor versed in domestic violence. It is important to be able to talk to someone face to face. There is not much you can do right at this minute. Oftentimes, we think of the absolute worst case scenario, as a sort of macabre prepping, [I]if it does happen[/I]. This does not help you, or your daughter. I am a firm believer that thoughts have power. Try to think of good things. I know it is hard when everything seems like it is tumbling down. I would repeat things like "My daughter is smart, she will figure this out." Or, even just a simple prayer "Lord, please help me." That was a start to [I]my [/I]road to recovery. We do not have to get lost in the choices of our adult children. Copa is right. We have all been where you are at right now. I will not have computer access this weekend, but I will be thinking of you and keeping you and your daughter in my prayers. Please take care and do good things for you. I am an old hippy, and find lavender oil and pachouli to be calming. I also have a ring with peace written in script, as well as a peace sign ring. Silly little things that remind me to work towards that goal of finding peace in the storm of this. Find something that works for you. I am so sorry for your heartache. (((HUGS))) Leafy [/QUOTE]
