my daughter is also bipolarII and her dad and then her stepfather abandoned her....i'm expected to fill their four shoes. and sometimes i can't. the projection spills over to me. she just started going back to NA (clean addict now) and i'm praying that that will help.

so, i don't think she feels abandoned by me, but my T does feel that she gets scared if i'm not readily available. it's very complicated for us. i THINK we might be able to take a trip together, but i'd be a nervous wreck....i hope that my moving to Texas will help. that might sound weird, but the Ts all around think it will be a positive thing for both of us.
