[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 653852, member: 13542"] Welcome. You have a lot on your plate with your daughter and your parents. That is a lot of grief for you to be holding in your heart. I hope you have a strong support system in place, often we need professional help with the process of detachment with our kids, it is very difficult to do by ourselves. There is an article on detachment at the bottom of my post here, you might find it helpful. Many folks here find solace and support in Families Anonymous, Al Anon or other 12 step groups. You've been through a lot and there is still a lot on your plate, make sure you are taking care of yourself, giving to yourself, getting YOUR needs met. It is easy to get depleted when there are so many others to take care of. Remember to have compassion for yourself, you deserve that too. Your daughter is making choices which you can't control. But you can control your responses and your own health and well being. Focus on[U] you[/U] now. Take the focus off of your daughter and put it on yourself so that you can begin to fill yourself back up and balance out the care you have been putting into others. Keep posting, it helps. We're glad you're here. Sending a big hug for your hurting heart. [/QUOTE]
