[QUOTE="Sinking Heart, post: 740525, member: 23407"] Thank you for sharing. I hope and will pray that this coming November will be a happy reunion, and a peaceful & healthy long-term union. I feel everyone's pain on here so far and it blows my mind how all of you are still keeping it together and still have the energy to help others like myself. I feel I have been abandoned, betrayed, or failed by everyone I felt was supposed to support parents like us. I am still bitter about it. I feel because of certain "does not make sense" laws, different degrees/standards of who's in need of more help, whether the parents have it together or not, and yatta, yatta, yatta; the outcome (in my experience) is my child who is in need of help does not get the help and only got worse. Then it ultimately becomes only my problem, my child stays broken (even more broken than ever before), and they all go home still with a paycheck in hand. I have jumped hoops, begged, travelled, swallowed my pride, & borrowed/spent tons of money to try and get the help my daughter needs when she was still a minor. We were always turned away or I still did not have enough money. Now that she is an adult, there is absolutely nothing I can do now unless she pursues it herself. Um...but she's mentally ill and addicted to pills I can't even pronounce! I apologize, I'm rambling again. I am not happy to see so many parents/families hurting like myself because of their loved ones who need help, but I sure am happy you are around for me. I hope someday, I can be of service to you all also. [/QUOTE]
