I understand the feeling of guilt for allowing yourself to feel some happiness at this time of the year or guilt for even feeling happy at anytime of the year/week/day, but like you said your daughter has demonstrated these feelings of entrapment for a long time, regardless of what you have said or done! Like you said probably not much has changed, and that has absolutely nothing to do with you and what you say and do/or not say and do. It’s so incredibly difficult but you have to try allow yourself to just be you (not the prisoner yourself /at the mercy of your daughters feelings/actions) do whats needed to make you happy regardless of your daughter’s situation. A situation she’s chose. Happy Thanksgiving (I don’t live in USA but nearing Christmas so am somewhat feeling the celebrations) Sending much love and strength
