My 14 year old daughter has progressively lost interest in everything except spending hours on her computer/asleep in her darkened bedroom. She used to take part in lots of activities and one by one she has given them up. She appears to be doing well at school although we never see evidence of homework!
Every time I suggest an activity she declines and says it is boring. I took her out shopping at the weekend and she just stood in the shop displaying no interest whatsoever in anything around her.
I have tried to talk to her but she denies anything is wrong, and says I don't understand teenagers ( I am beginning think she has a point!)
She has few (one) friend from school who she spends time with infrequently. She says that she has nothing in common with the girls at school and feels isolated. However, she said pretty much the same about the kids in her class at primary school. She also says she hates her younger sister.
We have no idea what to do, but feel worried about her disconnect.. any advice gratefully received
