[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 671276, member: 19522"] Pm Dear, dear ksm I am sure this is not the results your D c was expecting to get from her attempt. Like you, I do not think she wanted to die, either. Teenagers are so damn compulsive, then add disorders on top of that, what a cocktail for disaster. One thing rings throughout your posts, she is trying to rule the roost. Emotional outbursts, spitting, slapping, UGH. I am no expert on mental disorders, but we [I]all[/I] have to live in this world and try our best to get along with others. We all have consequences for our actions. With that comes rules and boundaries and the biggie-respect. She is definitely wanting the center of attention, and I am pretty sure, this hospital bit is messing big time with her plans. So, what to do? 60 mile trip to go visit an unappreciative, sulking D c. Sorry, but if it were me, just saying, I would put my foot down, ([I]well this is the new me[/I]) and tell her that she made her bed, and now she must lay in it. No pun intended. I would tell her that, if she was going to be disrespectful, I would limit my visits, due to her 1. Lack of appreciation and respect 2. On account of the considerable time and effort it takes for you to get there. 3. Her sister needs your attention, too. 4. You need to be able to rest and recuperate from all the hullaballoo. I would then, even maybe make a poster that said- Treat other people the way you would like to be treated. So there you have it. I am certainly not telling you what to do, no way, this is your process and up to you. This is what comes to my mind, after some very similar repeat performances from my two "lovelies". If I have offended you with my :soapbox: my humble apologies. :kickme: Just my ranting and venting, spiced with my memories of my own very demanding, insensitive D cs. You do not deserve to be disrespected under [I]ANY[/I] circumstances. I am hoping the Doctors will have some solutions for you all, so that you can find some respite. You definitely need some "me" time. And after all that, I need some too! :backingout: Take care, One step at a time. One day at a time. (((HUGS))) Leafy [/QUOTE]
