Hi Copa, thank you for your input and straight up talk. I have had similar thoughts already. The behavior is an addiction and I would not allow drug addiction in my home, so why am I allowing this to go on? She was clean 2 months before this episode, and I think she is doing ok again right now, but I know this will happen again unless she gets some help.
I feel my spirituality slipping, can't sleep at night, this situation is making me sick, which is a red flag that something has to change .
You gave me more to think about. Listening to some YouTube experts on Borderline (BPD), like Marsha Linehan who invented DBT , the concensus seemed to be that inpatient treatment makes things worse in a lot of cases. So, I am torn, and I also acknowledge my inertia which is enabling.
