Hi, I am new in the chat room. Have a 28 yr old daughter who has been diagnosed with everything from bipolar, personality disorder,autism and what ever else a new doctor thinks they see. She is also strong willed and spoiled. Love is powerful but painful with people we need to tough love as we don't know how far to go and what the outcome will be. Ny daughter is in crisis right now and it takes everybit of energy to handle her and not lose your own mind. I have learned a couple of things but sure don't have the answers for everything. Jacquie, your health is most important as without you being healthy you can help no one. I also have learned to emotionally detach when I have to enforce a boundary I have set. My Linda also has delayed development and is sort of stuck in her teens years. Didn't mean to post so much but I truly empathize with you.
