DB'ing is sooooo hard (part 4)

[2thepoint]

"At the same time I see my W in a big downward spiral and I pray to god she has the strength to come out of it for good. I don't know. I do know the more I attempt to do the work for her by being Mr fix-it/enabler, the less likely she'll get to a point where she has to/will do something. She was a total wreck last night and this morning. She told me she's falling apart. Normally, I would do anything for her when she gets like that but it helps no one. So I just listen, but I'm not getting caught up in any expectations or false hopes. You know how it with a troubled kid. Sometimes you just have to let them go and pray they make it. She has the psychiatrist today. I figure each time she goes, has to help her somewhere down the line. I hope."

Rick I think you know that I have shared similar concerns about my W in prior posts. That she seems to be in a downward spiral and I wondered if she would hit bottom and find her way back.

so I think this line of thinking is normal. The thing is your W is a big girl and IS CAPABLE of figuring this sh!t out for herself. So let her and try to stop worrying.

And if your W is anything like mine, sooner or later life will catch up and an awakening of sorts will occur and then things will get real interesting.

So keep moving forward down your chosen path and maybe keep this in mind:

Love, like a river will cut a new path whenever it meets an obstacle.
