I would never walk away from my daughter, however, I do not want her to feel that I am. I have decided to not completely detach myself from my daughter for that period of time. I still need to be able to function so I can help her. I have been allowing myself to get too emotionally enmeshed in this situation. I think I will go to her mothers house where she is living to just see how she is doing. Maybe I can talk with her. Last night she got me dinner which is the first time she has ever done this.
Lately I have been thinking about more of her situation. She is in a terrible place right now. I guess sometimes all I can do is just let her know I am there for her. I am just used to having her lash out at me over the last couple years saying very hurtful things. There is no “Health and Human Resiurces Agency” in Arizona. I need resources to help me to help her. So I think I will go to my mental health agency to see if they can refer me to some such place here in Tucson. I also have found or two possible places that list themselves as crisis intervention services. One also can provide social services.
