I hear what you are saying. We saw the therapist yesterday for the second time.

AP did not tell the psychiatrist about her cutting last week when she saw him

for the first time. When she came out yesterday, I asked her if she told the

therapist everything. AP was told by the therapist she needs to seek help in

other ways rather than cut herself. my daughter said she has no feelings at

times and she cuts herself in an attempt to feel. She told me on the car ride

home " I feel so dead inside and so confused because I cannot stop the thoughts

of counting or brushing my teeth or making sure my hair is ok " she has almost

brushed the enamel off her teeth. Her hair is so thin is looks like strings on

her head. She is in AP physics and doing really bad...when I asked why she said

there is too much stuff on the wall and she has to count everything! When I went

to open house, I understood what she meant because the wall had stuff from

previous classes and even the

ceiling tiles had designs on them, her teacher said he thinks she is on drugs

because she simply stares at the wall or ceilings.

I do appreciate all the feedback and from reading the logs, I have realized, my

child is simply a beautiful 16 year old who should be out having fun instead of

locking herself in her room because she is tired of being the 'weird one' all

the time. Thank you all for your support.
