Re: Revelation

[Guest guest]

Thanks

She's doing so much better......... even had a revelation last night, said

to me, ya know, all this seems so much easier, doing what I have to do as

opposed to facing the consequences!!!!! I was floored! But it was music to my

ears. So far, so good, and she has a much more happier attitude. I've got

my toes crossed too, never mind the pain!

Hugs,

Have you been praying? Seriously, it sounds like devine intervention.

My daughter has never once during all these 13 years ever admitted she was

wrong about anything. That's why, even during her 3 years of " normalcy " , my son

never believed it would last. He always said she never believed she had done

anything wrong.

That is such great insight on your daughter's part. You must be cautiously

relieved.

In ref to your last post to me, I just left a message for another lawyer who

is supposed to work with grandparent's rights.

I have so many people praying including myself. Like I said earlier, she's

not ALL BPD,

but has a lot of the traits. The cutting stopped ages ago. She never

raged. She's a lot narcisstic and histrionic.

I am cautiously relieved, but also cautiously optimistic. June 15th is

soooooooooo close.

Baby steps, even in the morning, like yesterday I said, Happy Hump Day,

halfway there!

She agreed, then today, I said, Thurs. already? One more day! She said I

can't believe how quick it went. I said the busier we keep ourselves, the

faster the days go. She said that yesterday she was sitting in 3d period

thinking, I've only got 4th and 5th, then go to lunch, then only have 7th and

8th

left! How quickly it goes.

I just listened and smiled, will never tell her I told you so. She has to

realize herself.

Hugs,

It's so good to hear happy news from someone.

I guess I am just pessimistic, but I don't think or any of these

girls (women) who are older really have much hope of changing their behaviors, I

really don't. They're just carrying too much bagage.

has a lot to face, with the credit card fraud and all the other lies

she tells. It just seems more involved for her and for many of them. And she

keeps embroiling herself in more and more negativity.

Debbie,

This is wonderful news. I do hope she is able to make it through

the end of school. At that point, she will have a lot to be proud of

considering what she is struggling with.

I think my daughter is much the same as yours. She also had a lot of

hs problems, mostly due to anxiety, but managed to squeak through

and graduate.

Although she has had her problems this year with college, we do see

some improvement. I think there is a lot to be said for maturity,

because it is hard to sort out what is bpd and what is just being a

teenager.

A couple of months ago, I discussed my daughter's meds with her and

suggested that perhaps she ask her shrink to reduce the dosage of

two of the meds which make her sleep so much. She said " No, I think

the meds are working for me. I don't want to change anything. " I was

surprised, because this was the kid who stopped taking her meds

twice and ended up in big trouble.

Good luck the rest of the year! I'll keep your family in my prayers.
