[QUOTE="butterflydreams, post: 173067"] been there done that with my daughter. She has never been a girly girl. Wouldn't wear dresses after about 1st grade. Would only allow her hair in a pony tail. Wouldn't wear pink. Was really in the "Goth" stage for a couple of years. Now, she loves hot pink (still can't tolerate baby pink), loves messing with her hair, still usually wears jeans - but will at least look at dresses for occasions. She has several dresses that she has worn to dances at school. She will complain that her life stinks and nothing is ever going to change. Nothing works no matter what she does. It goes on an on. I know I have many of get woke up during the night by her bawling her eyes out. There are some times that she goes on and on and all I want is for her to go shut herself in her room because she just rags on everything. My daughter is in therapy - at first she acted just like Wynter. "I'll go, but I am not happy about it." Now she emails back and forth with her counselor and requests to go in off weeks that she doesn't have an appointment. She doesn't always follow through on what they discuss. She will go on and on about how she can't tackle something. Her counselor has told her "How do you go about eating an elephant?" "One bite at a time" She still doesn't quite get the concept to try not to look at everything at once - shoot I can't even do that. My daughter is also being treated by psychiatrist for depression and he is keeping tabs on her emotions and has hinted that there is a strong possibility of bipolar there, but we really need to get her physical health under control before he makes that determination.
