[QUOTE="Lynn34, post: 722593, member: 22027"] Thank you. I moved out with her to get her away from younger sister who was a trigger and had exhusband move back into the house. She is 18 but no where near an adult. I have asked every state agency for help but no luck. She refuses help and blames me for not supporting her. Honestly, I don’t know how to help her. She feels well do something fun but never well enough to work or go to school. I don’t have friends anymore. I am not strong enough to kick her out. I could not live with myself. She would die on the street. I am in therapy. I pray and meditate daily. I can’t take care of myself because I can barely breathe. All of her anger at the situation is directed at me. I know I didn’t cause or create this but my guilt is off the chart. Her father, probably also with a mood disorder and anger issues, was very verbally abusive. She wants a loving, positive support group. I can’t give her that. I did go to a Nami meeting. It was a two hour :censored2: session of no hope. Not productive. I do go to al—anon. That has been helpful. But there is a difference. I know I can’t enable her. I finally turned my phone off at work but I am afraid to go home. She needs to get help. But she is not well enough to find the help. So I feel I am just waiting for her to snap and I have to call the police. (And risk being evicted). I need more support. I need help. I can’t take much more! I feel so helpless. I don’t even know who else I can call for help. I have tried every agency. I wish there was somewhere she could live. Sorry for the rank. Ugggh [/QUOTE]
