[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 691099, member: 1550"] You have power and options, Hon. Clearly your daughter can't or won't have a relationship with you or anyone else unless everyone bows to her wishes, even those that are none of her business. You will never be able to be around her and relax. You will be walking on eggshells. There is actually a book called "walking on eggshells" by Randi Krieger. Do read it. It will help. You can order it on Amazon. Your choices are many. Here are but a few. Keep things the same, go back, but understand that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. You can cut your daughter off completely or limit your contact with her to once a month or six months. I suggest getting therapy. You need somebody to go to when you feel weak and that is regardless of your decision. Don't let her have atom bomb power over your life. Live your life as you see fit. Disengage with other family members who like to stay engaged in her craziness. You can talk to them, but make it short and sweet and get off at once if they refuse to not talk about daughter or if they abuse you. Nobody should abuse you,especially not family. Don't let them do it. Limit contact. Walk away. Find friends and maybe some family who love and respect you. Hang with those who value you. Join some group or church. Be positive. Don't live in negativity with negative people. This is all just my opinion. Take what you need and leave the rest. More big hugs! [/QUOTE]
