[QUOTE="Weary Mother, post: 707267, member: 20487"] Well RN, you are right, things are quiet right now, except I have had so much worry for so long that I am acting like a person with PTSD. I spoke to my daughter for the first time in a while last night. I feel better after talking to her, although her situation is not good yet. I am aware that she can change this and conveyed to her that she is strong enough to manage her life. She did face time on the computer and showed me her little apartment. It is not real fancy, and it is small but she does have her bed made, pictures hung on the wall and even though she looks tired and depressed she is eating and has some hope of a job. I cannot live my children's lives and yes they are adults. But this has been so long and they just don't grow up and take a normal amount of responsibility as adults. This long term helpless ness and major life problems has taken it's toll on my own ability to detach, and have my own life with out constant worry. [/QUOTE]
