Hi There, I am new on here. I have been having major behaviour issues with my teenage Daughter. To the point I feel like I really don't like her at times. She is 15 yrs old. It has been a hard time this year so far. I broke up with a Man I dated for 7yrs and they were close. We moved out in February. She was very very sad-depressed. I hurt for her. Before the break up and what lead to it was that I started drinking-I am an alcoholic and had not drank in a long time. I also have bipolar so I know it is not a good combo. But I did it and have hurt many people especially her. I have told her I would not drink again and then have. So she does not have much trust in me I know. I also got a DWI in May. So I have screwed up. But I do not drink around her. Right now I limit my drinking to one day a week when she is at her Dad's. I have had lots of issues with my Ex and His Wife, they have always been nasty to me and now since my DWI and finding out about my relapse they are even worse. I understand their concern, That is why I have kept them inform about everything but I feel like they do not care about my getting better and being a good Mom which i feel I have up until this past year. It is all about control to them. So with that added. Things are very difficult for me. I know I screwed up but I feel i am paying for it all the time even with my improvement. She goes to their house and comes home in a bad mood and just ignores me for a day-sometimes she'll be very disrespectful and we get into arguements. I feel like when I have mentioned anything about her moods to her Dad they just blame me and I know it is not just me because she has told me for a long time they put a lot of pressure to do everything perfect. There are also problem with friends. So she still talks to me about everything when she is in a better mood. But anyways if anyone has any feedback I'd appreciate it. Plz be honest I can take it.
