[QUOTE="welcometowitsend, post: 590504, member: 14356"] JKF - I know exactly what you are saying! How much is enabling and how much is doing what they are not capable of for themselves? When you are dealing with mental illness it is a different, often wobbly line that we are walking. But someone else on here said to me that he still has to want the help for himself, which is true. And my difficult child is really intelligent and has had enough moments of insight into his own behaviour to know that he could use at the very least the antidepressants and some counselling. He just doesn't want it. Busy - Yes, I am coming to discover that letting go is a process not an event. Every time I think I've let go of things along comes something else to make me realize I'm not done yet - it's becoming more clear that this is going to take a long time. [/QUOTE]
