[QUOTE="what to do, post: 669215, member: 19639"] Thank you all so much for your kind words. I've spent the day calling counselors and trying to get an appointment. They sure don't make this easy :( My daughter and I talked for hours yesterday and we agreed that we can not go on like this. I am pretty tired of being the enabler and want her to become independent and self-sufficient for her own sake as well as her daughter's. While she has had issues for many, many years no one has ever diagnosed her and she has not been in therapy. Based on all of the research I've done I think she might have Borderline Personality Disorder but then I'm not a doctor and don't want to misdiagnose her. Most of her problems have centered around impulse control and doing things without ever thinking of the consequences. I'm ashamed to admit that I've let her get away with way too much over the years and have not been good at setting boundaries even though I know I should. I appreciate everyone's input.:grouphug: [/QUOTE]
