[QUOTE="exhausted, post: 522334, member: 11001"] Kathy I 'm glad she is going. She is at an age where it may now make a real difference. She also asked for help. I don't believe for 2 seconds that our difficult children want to be addicts or in the place they are in. For some of them it is the easiest way to avoid reality, for some it has a choke hold on them, others act as if it is "fun" because the reality is just too painful. As for the mental illness-I believe it puts a whole new spin on how we help them. It will be a life long problem. Noone goes through life alone very well. Someone who sufferes with personality disorders suffers in ways we cannot understand-at least as my daughter describes her anguish. How do we turn our backs on them when they are willing to be treated? I'm proud of you and noone will be dissapointed-at least noone who has even an inkling of the situation you are in. (((Hugs))) to you dear mom! [/QUOTE]
