[QUOTE="Tired and Hopeful, post: 669121, member: 19623"] I know your feeling exactly. My 40-year-old daughter has a history of drug and alcohol abuse...been to rehab multiple times and apparently the last time worked. She had to go on her own..we would no longer allow her to live here. I guess she did not like the homeless shelters because she found a program that worked for her and has been drug and alcohol free for nearly two years. However, she is not any easier to get along with. She is now a full-time college student and works, but her relationship with us is damaged. You never know what you will get with her...she might be pleasant or she might be bitter, angry and accusatory...everything is all our fault. After 25 years of dealing with this personality (her problems started at age 15) and after raising her children, both of whom were born during her drug phases, I just do not feel much of anything about her anymore. Most of the time I am apprehensive when I hear her voice because she thrives on conflict and we do not. [/QUOTE]
