Are you moving back to where A is? Who is your daughter living with? I don't know about DSS in S.C.i know DEFAX in GA did nothing to help me get my son back. I would suggest a good attorney in the place where your daughter is. I would also suggest you get into therapy and Naranon for your own benefit. I grew up in Charleston...a very alcoholic town. I can't stand it...never went back after I turned 17. But it has changed a lot since I was there. I would start researching attorneys for child custody, are you still married? What is it you want ? How much do you see your daughter now? Take it one day at a time. There is a lot of support here. Keep posting.
