[QUOTE="BusynMember1, post: 762033, member: 23706"] Hi. I feel for your sad heart. I believe my daughter is borderline. However she refuses to get help for it so she keeps getting worse and more unmanageable. We did tons for her with no appreciation. There comes a time, and in my opinion it happens to 90% of us, when we just say "no more!" I am done trying to care for a 34 year old daughter who won't even try. There is no point. She gets no money from us and can't live with us no matter what. Earlier on, we bought her a house, then a mobile home, then.paid rent, then bought her three cars. Guess what is left of that? If you said nothing, you are right. She lost everything.⁹ She now lives in a dilapidated motorhome in the SW and supports herself on government benefits. She won't talk to us but that is fine. Did I forgot to add that her son now lives with our stable daughter? She never calls to ask about him. We can only do so much. Sounds to me like you've gone overboard. Lastly I believe mental illness is hereditary. My daughter is adopted. I don't feel the borderline is our fault. Never thought so.We loved her to the moon. I suggest therapy for you to learn to cope with her and a 12 step Zoom meeting like Families Ananymous. It is too hard to do this alone. Please don't try. Those Zoom meetings are great. Find them online. Sending hugs and love. I [/QUOTE]
