[QUOTE="janebrain, post: 194958, member: 3208"] Hi Heather, it really does seem to happen so suddenly, doesn't it? My difficult child 1 went from wanting everything pink to the goth look in about a half second it seemed. I think she was 13 too. She had an idiot therapist at the time who made a big deal out of it, telling her she wasn't really goth and trying to get her to wear preppie type clothes. Some of her support staff at her school though told me how proud they were of her--she was trying to break away from the hold that the popular girls had on her where she had to dress and look the way they thought she should or they would not be friends with her. It was really in response to them that she took on the goth look. My difficult child 2 also went goth around that age, now she thinks it is passe (well, she is 17 after all). Wow, your difficult child is a true teen now! You know, when my difficult child 1 started Lexapro it was like she "woke up"--I was glad she was interested in life again. Jane [/QUOTE]
