Usually, adults learn how to cope with problems building upon his/her previous successful efforts.

Do you have a substance abuse issue?

Well then you need to ask yourself. Am I making LB deposits by hitting her top ENs?

What new things is she finding to be upset about? At least she hasn't pursued the divorce.

My oldest daughter said a bunch of lies on Facebook about my ww. Somehow that became my fault. Also my sister wasn't very nice to her I already talked to my sister.

What did your DD say? Is she mad at your BW?

Why was your sister not nice to her and what did your sister say?

Your daughter is probably very frustrated.
Her parents are separated.
Her dad was hospitalized for attempted suicide.

Would you agree that your daughter can't get much emotional support from either you or your wife at the present time?

I suggest, have her visit a child counselor if you have not already done so.
She needs someone to talk to and work out her problems with

My daughter is always upset with my ww. They butt heads a lot and she's always been prone to lie to get attention.

My sister was upset and jumped all over my ww via Facebook. Just a guilt trip about what she's doing to the kids. I explained to her that this was my fault and that my end goal was to reunite with my family.. my sister thinks my ww is being a drama queen.
