[QUOTE="LetGo, post: 765613, member: 33482"] I am in the US. I am talking about my daughter, age 35. We had spent many years getting her therapy, psychiatry, medication, special therapeutic after school programs, and residential school. She started going down hill after school. She had a period where she was relatively "stable" with an apartment (subsidized), nursing staff to give her medications each AM and to leave her PM medications. She had monthly injected anti psychotic medications that made a difference. She went to a therapeutic day program. She cannot work. One thing she never let go of was the idea of wanting her birth mother (who was abusive). She had a fairy tale view of her mother and knowing her would make everything okay. So, off she finally went, 1,000 miles away. I heard nothing from her for 16 months. Apparently, it went okay for a couple of years and then my daughter's "true colors" and behaviors started. Birth Mom kicked her out. My daughter has been using drugs and has been arrested 3 times for aggravated assault (including while she was here). For some reason, I feel like everyone in her life has given up on her. That now includes me. She is who she is, unfortunately. I think she might feel more comfortable in jail. I see her reoffending. It still hurts. Thanks for listening. [/QUOTE]
