I just don't know what I can do. My daughter is battling with her own mental problem but yet lives in an abusive relationship with her "significant" other. I call daughter to see if she took her meds and to tell her I will pick up her son soon. She is crying, crying and crying her eyes out. She wants to kill herself, wants the pain to go away, wants the mental illness to go away. I tried talking and reasoning with her, but could not help her feel better. I have this awful gut feeling that someday she will do it. I don't know what to do. I feel guilty, I want to solve her problems....is this the mom in me? I just want her better. She is seeing a Pdoc and counselor, but both have had to cancel on her do to other circumstances. And I know what this does to me, depresses me even more. It brings out the anxiety in me, I have to set boundaries, but if she did succeed at suicide, I would feel it was my fault. I don't know what to do!
