[QUOTE="MrsMcNear46, post: 319046, member: 3234"] Thanks so much board mamas. I am so grateful that after all these years, you are still there to support me. It's still hard to believe it's been 9 years since I first found this site. Sweet Betsy was 12 and my mom had just passed away. I remember Fran always giving me the kind of advice my mother would have, straight up with love. From that, I always found the strenght to move forward. You taught me alot Miss Fran. And of couse, Star, with her amazing humor to always make me laugh. You guys are the best. Thank you. Today was better. Sweet Bets did agree to counselling and medication. We'll take that on next week. She is receptive to help, I truly think she wants her life to be better. The depression is a major factor here and I'm sure an AD will help her so much. She seemed flat and melencholy today after a rage and breakdown yesterday. I take it a moment at a time. Bets has a really high IQ and is super smart. She has always been a critical, out of the box, thinker. As an adult, she doesn't have the same values and ideals that she was raised with. She'd like to someday be a pysicist. She literally hates the government, the Fed, most main stream ideals. She would be happier living in a commune, where she could be allowed to be a free spirit, living off the land and not a part of main stream. She told me today that her biggest struggle is trying to be happy in a world that she doesn't fit into. I struggle with understanding her real feelings sometimes. I've really detached so much in the past 4 years. I have let her fall many times. She understands, finally, that my rescuing her is not what's best for her. She has accepted that. When she was melting down and threating suicide last nite, I did not panic. I did not come running. We spoke briefly and I told her how much I love her, that I would always be here to support her and I went to bed. I prayed and I slept well. I've come a long way. Blessings, Julie [/QUOTE]
