Hello @clregan2528

I am sorry to hear about the difficulties you are having with your stepdaughter. Since you say that this has been going on for 25 years, I'm assuming that the stepdaughter is an adult. Has her behavior gotten worse over the years or stayed the same? What is her age?

I see that you are being treated by a number of medical professionals. Are you also seeing a therapist? A therapist might be able to give you some ideas for dealing with this abuse. I would strongly encourage you, on a regular basis, to consider getting involved in talk-therapy with a good therapist.

Can you think about this?

Yes she is 51 years old and my husband pays her cellphone bill, helps her with her mortgage and anything that she needs. I have been in therapy for over 15 years now and I’m still in therapy. I am also under the care of a Phychiatrist. Ketamine was suggested to me because medications have not worked so it’s my last resort. I’ve had 9 infusions now and I will continue to have one every month hoping that they will eventually help me. My current therapist had an appointment with me and my husband before last Christmas to voice her opinion to both of us that I should spend that Christmas with our son who still lives with us at our home and my husband should go and spend Christmas with his daughter and son up at her home in Colorado.

She has become more abusive as the years have progressed
