My fourteen year old daughter who up until afew months ago was a happy,quirky girl has rapidly transformed into a sad,anxious shadow of her former self.After a frought few days at New Year I took her to see our GP who referred her to our local adolescent mental health unit.She has had 6 or 7 sessions with a counsellor,but seems to be spiralling downwards.She is due to see a psychiatric Doc nxt week and I'm pinning my hopes on this appointment.In the meantime I feel thoroughly wretched.We are a close family and this has affected all of us.Just wondered if anyone has any words of advice or support.My DD is refusing to go to school and I have not gone to work this week as I don't want to leave her even though communication is sporadic.
