Daughter’s dependence finally reaches breaking point

DEAR ABBY: I am 65, single and retired with an almost-40-year-old bipolar child. Although she’s compliant with her meds, she also self-medicates and sometimes must be hospitalized due to her mania. She doesn’t work and refuses to apply for any aid. I have stopped paying for her needs other than food, shelter and helping financially with her dog.
