[QUOTE="Blindsided, post: 755507, member: 23811"] Welcome, Blue. My Difficult Child is 41, my husband and I are living on our retirement. I too have chronic health issues. I too gave way more money than I ever should have. It had to stop. The many books, in my signature line have helped me understand so much, but coming here, finding this wonderful group of supportive people has been the bedrock for setting boundaries and sticking to them. Yes, read the article on detachment. I refer to it often to see where I am growing. The only thing we can change is us. I am learning to approach all interactions with my Difficult Child from a non emotional, common sense place. That's where detachment comes in. I cant completely detach, but I can emotionally and that is my sanity protection. Love and light, Celeste Found link on detachment.
