cont. It is easy to say that is not in your control. But the natural consequences is too great. If they lived on their own ( which is not an option yet ) I wouldn't worry about it and let them figure it out. It's because it is in my face and in my home that it is so taxing. They really have grand plans and dreams, but the depression/ anxiety etc is still pretty crippling and they need more time drug free and with a routine to get in the mindset to take charge of their life. Am I just justifying trying to control. I really just wish they'd take care of themselves so we can just be supportive.
