[QUOTE="PTSD Mom, post: 654638, member: 18976"] The therapist has given me tools to cope but this illness of my daughter still weighs on me every minute of the day. As long as she is suffering so badly, I cannot find peace. She says that I have secondary PTSD. I am in dread of having to pick her up from the psychiatric unit where she as been for two nights now. I will have to confront her at some point that I have found out that she has been using my bank account without my approval. First have to see how bad she is from her stay at the psyc unit. If the anger and confrontation starts up again, I may snap. She has no where else to go. I think I have felt too sorry for her and indulged her bad behavior too long. She cannot/will not clean up after herself. Says its because he has Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and hoarding tendencies. She seems to just not care if her surroundings are filthy. I think it must be just a conscious choice to live in filth. I don't know how far to push her since she definitely is mentally ill. Her ex-husband tried to kill her many times and left her with a scar across her face that will be with her forever. He was convicted of felony assault but was given five years supervised probation and is out and living in our same town. She is terrified he will come and kill her and us. He has said he will and may try. We use all safety precautions we know of. I just need to know that this night mare may someday end. [/QUOTE]
