You are welcome. And I am the same way. I give great advise but living it myself has been very difficult.
My true advise is to not even talk with her or let her see her daughter. It really does cause the kids major issues. I know cause I have to watch my son go through heartbreak everytime I have allowed him to see his dad and then his dad says I'll see you tomorrow and never calls tomorrow or shows up. I blame myself after all these years for trusting him. I should know better by now. Well I do now hopefully, but it took a long time for it to get through to my head - JUST LET GO. I am doing just that. I was sitting here at work putting some packets together and thinking about when this started. Oh my gosh this has been going on for so long. I know exactly when it started and I cannot believe I have put up with it for so long now. ANd to think I would ever let him make me feel as if I was doing something wrong to him after all this time. He deserves all the consequences he has to pay. You need to try to think like that. The addict is not your child. Its the demon that took over and when you are nowhere around to feed that yearning for love, the addict will find the strength to break out of that demons hold and go back to that love they miss so much. She has to build up her own strength to get there. Stop handing her anything that she does not deserve at this point in her life. It doesn't mean it will always be that way. I know you love her. I am madly in love with my ex husband too, but he is making the choice to use and so is she. They can quit cause I have seen it. It is a choice trust me.
