[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 654649, member: 18516"] Hi PTSD Mom, I'm so sorry you are having to deal with such a difficult situation. I am glad you found this forum, we are here to support you and offer our advice. Take what you can use and discard the rest. I would like to suggest that you start your own thread as you will get more responses. Give as much detail as you can without being to specific as we want to remain anonymous. If you need help just let me know. I agree with [USER=11791]@InsaneCdn[/USER] that if all your therapist is offering you is sympathy you are wasting your money and need to find a therapist that can offer you some true direction. When your daughter is turning things around on you it's a tactic called gaslighting. Some people are not conscious that they are doing this. Basically they are trying to make you believe something that did not happen. In your signature you say your daughter is 35 and that she had to move in with you. There is no reason a 35 year old needs to move in with their 64 and 69 year old parents. I understand that she is suffering from PTSD but that is still no excuse to move in with your parents. You and your husband will not be around forever and then what? Where will she go then? Have you tried reaching out to NAMI Here is the link [URL]https://www.nami.org/[/URL] There are other resources out there to offer your daughter help. At some point she will have to go it alone because you and your husband can not take care of her forever. This is theft. My suggestion is that you close that account and start a new one. I would also keep your credit cards locked up. There is no reason for her to have any access to your finances. If she does it again and it's without your knowledge you always have the option to call the police. If she ever gets violent with you, you need to call the police. These things need to be documented. I understand she is your child and that you love her. Trust me, that is not lost on any of us here, but you need to be taking care of yourself. Your daughter is 35 years old and should not be relying on mommy and daddy to take care of her. Again, you will get more responses if you start your own thread and let me know if you need help doing that. We are all here for you. Sending you ((HUGS)) [/QUOTE]
