[quote=Anonymous]As others have suggested, detach with love and do NOT enable. Do not react at all when she complains. You cannot reason with her. One good way to detach is to suggest she work with a therapist every time she wants to emote. If it were normal emoting and within reason i would say to humor her, but it's self-defeating and she is in a rut. She may get angry, but her issues are beyond family support and require a trained professional. You are not responsible for her happiness. Do what you can manage. If she makes you miserable each visit, make visits shorter.[/quote]
