[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 635222, member: 1967"] After our difficult child's last relapse, my husband and I cut off all financial support and, for the time being, have cut off all contact with her. difficult child was understandably upset but her therapist told us that she told difficult child that we had to cut off support because we were in danger of enabling her to death. The therapist said it was time for our difficult child to stop acting like a victim and start taking care of herself. Sometimes what we think is helping is really hurting our troubled loved ones. That is why it is so important to see a therapist or join a support group that can help you differentiate between helping and enabling. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
