[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 680010, member: 18516"] Hi So, I'm chiming in a little late. The love you have for your daughter is very deep and because of that your pain is also very deep. Even if your daughter had an official diagnosis of mental illness there is still nothing you can do to change it and that is nothing to feel guilty about. One thing that has helped me to let go is to remind myself that the sooner I let go and allow my son to figure out how to live his life on his own the better because I will not always be here. I hope to live to be a wrinkly old woman but I could also get hit by a bus tomorrow. My intervening in my sons life does him no favors. You have been doing really well in limiting your contact. It is hard when we first start to detach in that we are happy to not hear from them for a few days yet we can't help but wonder what is going on. We are detoxing from them and their chaos. I hope you are doing wonderful things just for you!! ((HUGS)) to you dear friend. [/QUOTE]
