Looking for practical ideas
What can I do to help? She’s seeing a gp but she’s very down

Classic symptoms always Tired no has appetite not interested in anything - not washing or brushing teeth

My instinct is to insist on getting her up and out Fresh air and exercise and decent food always make me feel better - but she isn’t me

She lives mostly with her dad but is with me temporarily while he sorts out a new home (long story) Not sure how long she’ll be here she’s almost 18 so I have to remember she’s an adult not a child

Anyone else been here.?
