My DD14 has issues with OCD and trichotillomania since she started secondary school. Her attendance was becoming very bad before lockdown and i was exhausted with trying to keep her going. Her low mood, self-centredness and uncooperation infects the whole house. Now shes had nearly 6 months off and regular counselling, i thought it might improve but with school due to resume soon her negativity is ramping up and i dread the morning battles. I dont think i have it in me to keep taking her on but i dont want to give up on her either. Im tired just thinking about it. I know its up to me and noone else can help but is anyone else in the same boat?
