No it’s not your fault. Her blaming you for yelling at her is herself blaming herself. She’s yelling at herself. I know.. I’ve been there, always thinking people are mad at me. How old is she? Old enough to get her own place?

This was written many years ago. My daughter has been sober and has done well. Thank you though for your concern.

I asked my daughter permission to share such a person story and she said absolutely if it could help somebody in her position like she was in or a parent who was trying to be supportive yet held the line of accountability. She understood they were my emotions seeing her go through a dark period in her life.
