[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 725446, member: 18958"] hmbgal hi. i second the idea of posting your own thread. first. a hug. you are a hero. A wounded hero who keeps going, carrying vulnerable comrades and making sure everybody gets back to the fort safely and in one piece. and then? you volunteer for a another mission. i think the first thing is acknowledge the hero you are. the second is to look for and give yourself what sustains your life so that you are able to give yourself the star treatment you warrant. and keep going. that daughters"s life is overwhelming to You does not one thing except exhaust and defeat you as it would do anybody. what you and i need is to find is a way to let our kids be the heros of their own movies. she can do this. where i live meth has been a huge problem for almost 30 years. we live off of a major transport line for drugs which is also a big manufacturing, cultivation center. sometimes it feels like twenty percent of the town is recovering. they do. they rebuild their lives. they become heroes too. of their own lives. there are all kinds of clinics (sliding scale) where she can get her teeth fixed. m, my partner, had maybe 20k dental work done (not meth.) (he is low income). he paid maybe 1k max over a period of years. the thing is your daughter needs to decide to save herself. once she does she will find a whole world of support. but you cannot hold her up yourself. picture that image of a woman holding the globe in her arms. if it were me i would join a church or synagogue. but the thing is, she has to decide to open her arms and dig down.until she does this it is a waiting game. but not for you. it does not have to be your burden. that is what we learn here and in personal therapy and for some 12 step groups. for me, it is a long haul. take care. .
