[QUOTE="newstart, post: 724743, member: 22416"] Enmeshedmom, I am so sorry for your hard road. My daughter is now out of the house but when she lived here I was like you described you are. I was full of anxiety all the time because I knew she was up to no good. This situation is almost unbearable when you know the potential they have yet chose to do the wrong things. I prayed a lot and exercise. I think walking and swimming saved my life. It gave my anxious feeling a way to settle down. Hot saunas calmed my nerves too. I stayed away from caffine and tried to eat right, cut back on the sugar. I was always working on getting a new perspective when I was around my daughter. I love my daughter so much that I could not stand to see her on the wrong road, it hurt me deeply.. I had to realize that it is HER journey and not mine. She needs to fall in order to learn but watching her fall was too much for me. But after a while I knew what I was doing was not working so I had to do things that were against my nature. I wish you the very best. If I could go back and do it all over again, I would let her fall harder and faster and I would quit trying to make life easy or better for her. With my son, things I did worked perfectly but not with her. I wish you all the love and luck in the world. Watching comedy helps too. I know all too well how your feel. [/QUOTE]
