[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 175619"] Crazy...Thank you for your post. I am going to re-read it. My gut (at this time) is teling me to always [I]help[/I] difficult child provide for medical care (especially psychological services) if she wants it, is willing to make use of it appropriately...i.e. make her appointments, keep her appointments and take any prescribed medications. However, I can't and wont force the issue. I always want there to be hope for health. However, I am learning to detach and have made much progress. Part of this learning process had to do with the difficult and painful realization/acceptance that if difficult child doesn't follow doctor's orders, doesn't progress with her issues, it could be [I]very[/I] costly...but it will be "on her" like you put it. I agree... it was hard for me to grasp. My husband still struggles alot. And other parents are not only clueless, but they are often inclined to judge us as well (potentially causing more pain).
