Welcome helpmecope. This illness is hard on the person diagnosed and their friends and family. It's very important for you to set healthy boundaries with your daughter because you will burn out. Have you considered seeing a therapist and/or joining a face to face support group for family members?

The book in my signature is written for friends and family members of those diagnosed. It's excellent.
