[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 663517, member: 18958"] Your role and responsibility to care for your daughter is over. She has a constellation of behaviors and diagnoses that can only be handled and treated in the public sector, by Community Mental Health. In any metropolitan area there are treatment facilities that your daughter can enter. She can graduate eventually to satellite housing where she lives with other women with similar issues. She will be helped to apply for SSI. Your daughter does and says all kinds of things that are related to her disorder. It is not your fault, whether she says it is or not. To the extent that you take it in and suffer and blame yourself, you are hurting yourself for no reason what so ever. Everything she does is related to her diagnosis. You did not cause it. You cannot cure or control it. You are right. It is likely genetic. That would be like blaming the cat because her baby turned out to be a kitten. All of this does not matter. You only use each of these to accuse yourself: We are glad you are here. It is not your fault. The thing to do now is to do what it takes to get your daughter into a system where she can be helped. You cannot help her. It will only hurt you more and hurt your other children. Keep posting. We care about you. There will be people here to help you every step of the way. Take care. [/QUOTE]
