[QUOTE="tryagain, post: 626914, member: 14865"] Amen to COM's post above. So well said. Momjane, I remember both wishing my difficult child would move out and simultaneously dreading if she did. I finally got sick and tired of being sick and tired. I told her, "There's the door. I'll help you pack." She "knew everything" and we were idiots. She had such violent mood swings that we hid every knife and tiptoed around her lest we unleash the beast. I have scars on my arm where she bit me so badly because I asked her to bring her laundry downstairs. (Just to give you an idea of what an unmedicated bipolar difficult child can be like) When they finally do leave, it is suddenly peaceful again. You can breathe freely. No more stepping on eggshells. I know that my difficult child had to leave in order to realize that we weren't idiots. That her trashy boyfriend wasn't a god. That she, also, deserved a better life unencumbered by mood swings and low self-esteem. Momjane, I feel for you bc I have been there. It's utter hell. But I survived, and you can, too. We are all on your side. [/QUOTE]
