My daughter is 24 years old. I have guardianship of three of her 4 children. I ahve seen her go deep into meth and depression and come back. She lives in my home and wont work. She is falling deep into a well of darkness and I dont know what to do. She tells me that every morning when she wakes up she is so disgusted that she lived through the night that she wants to ripp her skin off..I want to call the Justice Of The Peace on Monday morning and see if maybe having her committed would be a wake up call…I need help , advice and some moral support.. I pray…where do I go?

Yes some outside help could benefit her and you too not to mention the children. Sometimes things are just too big for us to handle alone. Have a look and see if you can find support groups that might help her. If she wont go to them maybe someone will call around to see her. Get the ball rolling somehow and soon.
