[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 687371, member: 18958"] I agree with the others, that being "done" has to do with where you are Walrus not anything to do with the ultimate diagnoses or decisions or prognosis for your daughter. While I do not think it is either necessary or really possible to know with certainty which came first the chicken or egg, I believe you can decide rightfully and righteously based upon your welfare. I so agree with this. Some of us have walked away from mentally ill children who were abusing us. Were we wrong? Who can tell us that? Self-sacrifice is not helpful or curative of anybody. The unsaid thing in your posts is this: Am I worth saving at the hands of my child? The answer is yes.This is so, but how will it make a difference, in your protecting yourself, right now the ultimate "curability potential" so to speak of your daughter. If you feel as if strangled now, does the etiology of diagnosis make much of a difference. Their changing was always in their hands, not ours. The fact that her father was so similar in behavior to you, makes this exquisitely horrible torture. Life certainly does seem to pick at scabs.[I][/I] [/QUOTE]
