[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 614522, member: 59"] Welcome holdin, cyberspace is a bit scary but I can assure you we are a very protective and supportive group. From the description of your daughter she sounds so much like my oldest. She also has anxiety and is on an SSRI and has a hard time making friends and has a very difficult time with every breakup. I was always worried about her using drugs to escape her low feelings of herself but it was my younger one that that got into drugs. To this day my older daughter feels she doesntl fit in very well in society and I worry so much abotu her. She is so smart and pretty and a down right good person I just wish she could find the right person to spend her life with. Back to your daughter. You are very fortunate that she confides in you and you want to keep that communication going. I'm glad she has split with the drug guy. I am more concerned with the lSD than I am with the pot, although pot can cause serious problems as I found with my younger daughter. Encourage her to be honest with her therapist and most of all to keep talking to you. She sounds like a great girl and I just have a feeling she will be ok. But of course you want to make sure her drug use does not go any further and that she deals with her insecurities. My daughter has said several times she wishes she could take a pill and go to sleep and never wake up. That breaks my heart. We are so close and I just wish I could help her feel better about herself, she has so much going for her but she doesn't reaalize it. You see I don't have much advice but I sure understand your worry. [/QUOTE]
