Hey @Micki , I'm following on and hope you have the strength to do what's right for you at the moment.
Whilst your daughter has a lot of support, I hope you can also find supports that keep you going. I'm minful that carer fatigue and carer compassion is a real things, especially if things don't turn out the way we would ideally like.
Mind you, I should also add that caring for someone can also bring a lot of joy and sense of fulfilment.
Take care mate.

Hi @Micki thanks for sharing,, I think @tyme said it that she is an adult and she will need to understand any consequences will be hers.
The best thing I believe is to just be there which may be the most difficult thing if they are not listening. Just remind her that you love them, you are hear for them and even if you are not seeing eye to eye you are still here and always will be. You are showing her that no matter what,you helped her through the tough times and you will continue to be here.
I feel to constantly remind her in hope that maybe she will let you back in and slowly give you back the trust you once had.
We can see your pain,, we can feel the struggle but we need to believe that love will conquer all
You are not giving up on her and I truly hope everything works out
