[QUOTE="klmno, post: 393039, member: 3699"] oh, geez....I am really surprised that she is taking this route. HUGS to you- stay as detached as possible- for your own good and MH as well as to reinforce to her that this is ALL her doing, her choices, her life. I know that it's really hard for a mother to do- I am still struggling with that in regards to my own difficult child. She just didn't hit a bottom low enough, I guess, but I'm pretty sure she will eventually. At this point, if I was the mom, I think I'd look at it like she knows where to find an AA/NA meeting if she does hit bottom and many people have to find a way to get straight with those meetings alone so the quicker she's left to delve herself into "the bottom", the better chance she has of making a better choice- but she'd sure be doing it on her own next time if she was my daughter!
