[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 654603, member: 18516"] Hang in there Weary!! Yes, this is part of the cycle. I went through this with my son, he would get to the point of desperation then would beg us to let him come home, he promised "it will be different this time, I've learned, blah, blah, blah" I do not blame you for not wanting her home and that is not the place for her. It's so hard because while they are legally an adult and demand to be treated like one, they do not act like one and when things get to rough or scary they retreat to where they always felt safe, at home with mommy. She does not belong in your home anymore. She is not a little child, she is an adult even though she is not acting like one. Weary, you are neither whimpy or a terrible mother. You are a loving mother who is concerned about her daughter. Your daughters choices have dictated this whole story, you did not do this. You simply want some peace for yourself and also your daughter. At this point, jail is really the best thing for her as it will force her to be clean and sober. Oh, my heart goes out to you. Just know that this won't last forever. I have been right where you are, the feelings of desperation coupled with too my anxiety. Do whatever you can to try and calm your nerves. A bubble bath with a cup of chamomile tea or perhaps treat yourself to a massage. Again, you are not a terrible person to want her in jail. (Jail or doing drugs) I would pick jail every time. I am so sorry you are going through this but you are not alone. We are here for you, supporting you, hugging you, holding you up. Take care my friend!! [/QUOTE]
