Hi again Sadgirl92
Thanks for this quick update Your daughter moving out definitely sounds like progress to me considering her abusive behavior
We hit a rock bottom fight. I mean ROCK BOTTOM. I had enough and my mother asked her to leave... .my mom has never done this.
Was it a verbal fight? Was there also any physical violence involved? You've mentioned before that your daughter also gets physically abusive.
My friends and family are mad at me saying I’m an enabler because I rewarded her behavior with an apartment. But they don’t understand. They don’t Truly understand.
You did what you did to find a solution for a very difficult situation. Outsiders might not always understand, but we all can only do our best with the knowledge and skills we have and I think what is really important is that you took the steps you deemed necessary to keep yourself safe In spite of everything, she is still your daughter and you are right that her mental illness is a significant factor in her volatile behavior.
When you say your family is mad at you, who are you talking about exactly? Are your parents also mad at you?
Having a support network in place can be invaluable as is often said on this site. That's why I'm glad that you've made an appointment with a professional who can help you navigate these difficult situations
Take care and I hope all goes well Wednesday and also after that of course
