[QUOTE="bran155, post: 166440"] Hello, I am also sort of new, I used to post quite often a while back, it has been about a year now since I have been an active member of this web-site. I had to come back for support, my difficult child 17 yr old daughter has recently come home from her Residential Treatment Center (RTC) and it has been hell ever since. You are absolutely correct in saying the only people who truly understand what you are living with are the people who actually live it. And that would be me, along with everyone else on this web-site. You are not alone. I do know how hard it is to live in this situation, it must be so much harder for you since you are dealing with twins. I too am sick of the emotional roller coaster, going from one emotion to the next all day long is not easy. My difficult child gets high 2 or 3 times a day, like you I dont know how she does it, at this point we dont give her any money at all anymore, so it is very scary to wonder how she is getting this money. It is hard because our children are not going to be minors for much longer, so our options for help are limited. At this point they must want the help, forcing it upon them will only last until they turn 18. My family has been through the mental health maze for years, to no avail. My daughter has been in 3 rtcs and numerous day treatment programs, we are now approaching the end of our rope as she will be 18 in 8 months. What now? I wish I knew. She has multiple dxs the most recent and the most accurate is Borderline Personality Disorder, she has been on a number of medication combinations, still have not found that magic bullet.
