[QUOTE="Acacia, post: 761844, member: 19832"] Welcome, Glenna. Busy and Copa are spot on with their thoughts. Oh boy, can I relate to your story. My 41 year old daughter is borderline with substance abuse and has two children though younger than yours. Over the years I have tried and tried to help her and also took her in as you did. As you describe, with borderline the attacks come out of nowhere, the rage is extreme, and there is remorse. Your nervous system must be shot. I finally had to refuse to let her back when yet another relationship fell apart. It was one of the most difficult things to do, but I also knew I could no longer tolerate her abuse. She has not spoken to me in four years. My heart hurts, but not as much as when I was being abuse daily. I encourage you to post here, to read old posts, and to seek support to learn to set boundaries to protect yourself. [/QUOTE]
