[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 622512, member: 13542"] MWM, my daughter doesn't do drugs nor does she drink, she has mental/personality disorders of an unknown nature since she has never been diagnosed, however, there is '[I]something[/I]' wrong. With the exception of cigarettes, she is actually pretty healthy and keeps herself in good shape with a healthy diet and exercise. She smoked pot a bit before she was arrested the first time 2 years ago, but once she was on probation and drugs are obviously a reason to go back to jail, she stopped everything. She is extremely bright, has a very high IQ which gives her the intelligence to control a lot of her life with her sheer force of will. A Psychiatrist she went to about a year and a half ago said she is likely suffering from PTSD and severe anxiety as well as a good possibility of bi-polar or some kind of mental illness since that is so rampant in my family. But, she only went to him once (I pushed her into it to get her into the system so she could get resources) and like many of our kids, she doesn't feel there is any problem, so whatever it is, it has wrecked havoc in her life and the lives of those around her since her husband committed suicide. That event either triggered a dormant mental illness or created a disorder or? I don't know. She is very into control, leans towards hoarding, is highly sensitive and emotional and fits personality disorder profiles like Narcissism. But, I really don't know. Can severe grief cause someone's life to implode? She got so angry and bitter after her husbands death, it's as if her whole personality changed. She is the most unusual person I have ever encountered. My friends and my SO and even her own daughter all say that as well. And even with so many mentally ill people in my family, she is really nothing like any of them, she is in a class all by herself. [/QUOTE]
