A mum struggling to cope with an adult homeless daughter

Hi there

Wondering if anyone is going through or has had homelessness affect one of their children?

My dear daughter has had health problems all her life. Unfortunately she told me she had been sexually abused as an adolescent only 4 years ago. I believe this was the beginning of a lifetime of personal problems and she'snow 47. As im her only parent ive done everything possible to help her break through to no avail. Finally she has contacted a help line for domestic abuse and is moving from place to place with nothing but a carry back.

Im worn out emotionally and mentally after trying for over 15 years. Im trying to look after myself and keep distracted but I know I too need some help.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated..

Hello ladybird22

 

I'm so sorry that you're going through all this. It seems that you've tried all you could and there's not much else that you can do.

 

I hope that your daughter will get the help that she needs as it must be really hard for you to keep worrying
