[QUOTE="Californiablonde, post: 678030, member: 2196"] I honestly think she's depressed. She vehemently denies it. I don't think she has a clear idea of what depression actually looks like. She thinks having depression is spending all day crying over nothing. I try telling her there are other signs of depression, and she has a few of them. The overeating, going for days without showering or washing her hair, and wanting to sleep all day. I tried telling the nurse practioner this at her last appointment, but he wouldn't even let me speak now that she's 18. He is only temporary. We are on hold to see an actual psychiatrist in our area but he is not accepting new patients until next month. She has an appointment in the middle of next month, and hopefully this guy will let me intervene just a little bit so he can see that difficult child is not "fine" like she keeps telling these doctors.
