[QUOTE="Weary Mother, post: 698505, member: 20487"] Susan: I recently joined this forum and also have a daughter with similar mental issues. My daughter has refused to go to a homeless shelter and said she would commit suicide before she does that. After a long 6 mo. of her being between this place and that place, she finally has a job, a working vehicle and small apartment in a town 500 miles away. It has been hard to accept this and I struggle also with what else can I do. This forum has helped me realize that most of the time there is very little that can change what our children do. Our problem is how to detach and manage to live our own lives with some happiness when they are not ok. I want my adult children to be ok, and there are times when I can't let go of their problems or quit worrying about them. But here in this forum there are people who have been there and done that and understand. I am glad you joined, and I hope you are able to try letting it go and see what happens. [/QUOTE]
