[QUOTE="Steely, post: 178306, member: 3301"] Heather....... Just wanted to send hugs. Slowly but surely I would try and set up as many activities outside the house as you can for Wynter. Since she is at home all day with the online school thing, I can see how she would be even more prone to depression, so maybe setting up one outside thing a day? Maybe even asking the tutor or mom if she can provide the transportation? I would make it part of her daily requirements that she go to these "extracuricular activities". They have great classes at the local recreation classes. Or even some school districts allow homeschooling kids to take their school's electives, like gym or art. Whatever you do, don't beat yourself up!!! It only makes it worse. I think you gave me the advice last time when I was as depressed as you - just set one goal a day, even if it is taking a bath. You did that yesterday!!! Have you already talked to your doctor about medications for your depression? Is Wynter willing to take her Lexapro again since she feels so badly? Hugs. [/QUOTE]
