The Blame Game

My daughter spent over an hour last night blaming me for herself. I thought it was interesting everything I am to blame for:1- not understanding what it was like for her in recovery2- being the only person there for her3-worrying about her4-expecting her to workand the best: for her own guilt! I am to blame for her guilt that she carries for her drug use and her overdose that cause her to die until I have her CPR because she does not think that I have progressed enough in my program and she...

My recovering 23year old came home in November. She completed a very good program. Now she seems lost again. She is hanging with people some are OK and some not so much. She is evasive, rarely will share anyone names, and has decided to have sleep overs all the time. This week I confronted her telling that the amount of time she spent sleepover places was strange. She told me that is what teenagers do. I quickly responded you are an adult. It seems that she lost her teen years...

Struggling While She's Recovering

I am struggling with my daughter being away in recovering because her therapist tells her every week that her addiction has made me sick. Though I do not deny that I have certainly done things to enable my daughter including not following my gut I really struggle with these comments since this therapist has not spent more than 10 minutes on the phone with me at anyone time. This came shortly after my daughter was discharged from partial hospitalization to IOP and the recovery organization...

I have been posting about my adults daughter's inability to manager her anger and her abusive behavior. Today I had enough and laid down the law. It felt good to finally take steps towards living a peaceful life. Today at 3pm I woke my daugher to inform her someone was coming to repair the ceiling in her living space. At 3pm I felt she should have been awake especially since we are in the process of moving. She called me rude and I left only to return at 4pm to find her and her friend...

Adult Child Behavior is Exhausting

My 22 year old daughter does not work. Today I told her she needed to have a job by the end of next week. This came after she called me all kinds of names and told me to go "f" myself because I dare to suggest that a job would open up more friends opportunities. Her emotional aggressive outbursts are random and unpredictable. I am always to blame for everything wrong with her life. She likes to tell my mom that I hate her and do not love her at all. She also tells her friends how...

I was previously posting under anxiety but I recently was diagnosed with PTSD do to a number of incidents that happened over my life. I feel silly just now seeking help but I really just always was keeping my head above water both physically, emotionally, and financially. My therapist says I have PTSD from the following: 1) The death of both grandparents- since I am a nurse I was expected to provide care to both, was with both when they passed away. Because I moved in with my grandfather...

My daughter's behavior continues to escalate. Today she turned 22 years old and flipped out because after I am done paying for the car she drives she will have to get her own insurance and the car will go in her name. (This is like 7 months away). She brought this topic up because she wanted me to trade the car in and get her a new car. ( not happening) She seems to believe she is entitled to spend whatever money she can, to not work, and to be a bully in my house. This weekend she...
