thanks for the encouragement lw. am glad to have found you in this thread, an LBH with a kid that was left by WW/WAS. D13 goes to IC. She already had a history of cutting prior to this dire situation. It was when her dog was dying. she was so distraught by it, that she expressed her emotions that way. So when WW decides to tell
her about her A, i did not hesitate to find her IC. She knows she is loved by me, and I assure her everyday that WW still loves her, even though in D13’s own eyes, she sees it differently in the way her mother acts towards her. I have already given up in changing her mind in her attitude towards WW. As what D13 told me the last time, when I asked her not be angry at WW, “ why won’t you let me feel what I want to feel?” and that got stuck in my head and realized that’s how the cutting incident happened, when she withholds her feelings. She still. any get over that fact that she is partly to blame for WW’s A. Every time WW hangs out with POS, she’s asks D13 to lie for her. Hence D13 holds herself accountable for that, she always says she should’ve told me.
I also could’ve been happier that I’ve know more about my daughter during this entire stitch, than the years i’ve taken care of her. Always staying positive despite the negative sitch. Being strong not just for myself but for D13 as well.
