[QUOTE="Kcj, post: 747590, member: 23725"] Hi All, I am new to this forum and I see the last posts seem to have been in 2017. I am wondering how others are holding up 2 years later. I believe my 31 year old daughter is an undiagnosed borderline. The descriptions fit her like a glove. She lives with me along with my 8 year old grandson. He is very smart, sweet and in the gifted program at school. My daughter has been verbally, emotionally, and physically abusive to me and I have unfortunately been an enabler. This is mostly because I have been too embarrassed to tell anyone and just let it continue. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis at 59 and had to give up teaching. I am now on disability because I am exhausted after 3 hours of any effort and in frequent pain. My pain management has prescribed me a small amount of painkillers each month for bad flares. My daughter takes them every time no matter where I hide them. I have finally told my therapist and family about the things she's done and now she is on the warpath. She says she will move away with my grandson, change her number and not tell me where she lives. My daughter has seldom been able to maintain a job or for that matter, relationship with friends or boyfriend. I am terrified she will be homeless. Also, if I'm not the target of her rage, will it be my grandson? Will he be safe and what will happen to all his potential if he's constantly in an unstable environment? I too, have sacrificed great amounts of money and my life savings to her needs. Now I must find some kind of work that will help me survive. I live in fear of the present and future. Can anyone give me words of hope? [/QUOTE]
