    Struggle Continues

    Thank you so much for the words of support and wisdom. I can get myself worked up into quite a state when I believe this could go on forever. She is going to be 19 in December, I just don't know what will have to happen before she wakes up/grows up. Today is a better day working on myself and...

    Struggle Continues

    Today, my burden feels heavy and it seems this two year struggle will never end. I am working hard on myself through Alanon, etc. so the days have gotten much better for me. My daughter seems to ride a constant wave of self destruction. When I think she is getting better, going to school and...

    A question to those of you with non grads

    I am in exactly the same position as you California. My daughter started her downward spiral second semester of grade 10. A former honour student she began skipping, drinking and smoking weed. Her School and home life deteriorated from there. Throughout high school she ran away many times...

    Conflicted....

    Thoughts running around in my head today causing so much self doubt and draining my strength…did I make the right decisions with my Difficult Child, am I doing the right things now etc etc. Most days I am fairly strong and confident in the decisions I am making and secure in the ones I have made in the...

    From bad to worse...much, much worse.

    I am so sorry Liz and Jabber. I could insert my Difficult Child's name in this story! I have been through situations similar to this many, many times. These kids seem so detached from reality it's truly shocking. As normal logical people, I know we all struggle with the "whys" of tough times like these. I...

    Took away his phone. He took off.

    My heart aches for you Terry. It just seems so trivial to say "let it go" when your heart is filled with sadness. I truly hope that you can find some peace in your heart. You have done all you can for your son and he will find his way....right, wrong or otherwise. If nothing else these...

    Difficult Child Update - "In Your Face Mom"

    Boy do I get this as do we all! It truly goes against what a mother feels the need to do love and protect! How do you love and let go? They all have that way of drawing us back in! The texts, phone calls desperate cries for help. Somewhere in that you see the child you once knew and hope rises...

    Well, its finally his day in court

    I am so sorry as well Liz and jabber! How painful to see ur child in that condition. I will often say things to my daughter knowing I shouldnt. I think it reaching out just to see if the person you once knew is still there! I struggle everyday with the "why"s of these situations! I don't know...

    Evil thoughts...

    My daughter is the same as well. The theft, the lies and then the denial until you think you are crazy one! Letting go ... And trying so hard not to try to figure out "why"
