[QUOTE="Mom2oddson, post: 393189, member: 65"] {{{Hugs}}} I'm so sorry you are going thru this. Nothing hurts so much as watching your child hurt. Unfortunately we can't live someones life for them. It is theirs and theirs alone to do what they want with it. We love them, teach them, care for them, counsel, advice, worry.... but we can't live for them. (It would make life a lot easier if we could). I know that doesn't help. Wish there was some advice I could give you. Focus on your self-care right now. When she wants to get help, I know you'll be there for her with all you warrior mom energy. Until that day, though, you need to take care of yourself so that you will have all that strength and energy. She knows that you are there. That you will be there for her because you always have been. [/QUOTE]
