I will shorty . She was writing messages on her mirror and I responded to her . If she puts another message that is depressing , then I will ask her . She probably will say nothing -

Like she always says .

if she finds writing an easy way to express herself then let her....may be she doesn't feel comfortable talking loudly about the problems " whatever they are ... "

let her write on the mirror or better yet give her a pencil and a paper and tell her to write the 10 worst things she can think of...probably could give u a clue

if she keeps a diary that could be helpful too

U need to place ur trust on her first. Sit with her alone, be very supportive, concerned , nice & polite with her. Assure her that u wil support her, understand her & listen to her, since u r her mother. Also, make her assured u wil advice her the wisest way! Also, give her a warm hug!

I am hoping it's just a phase she is going through . Don't want her to be drugged .

She may not need drugs. Sometimes just getting everything off your chest is all you need. Seriously tho don't wait. Something is tearing her up inside and its just gonna build up more and more until something gets done about it.

My mother was the problem .

And I understand - I had to live with how she was when I was younger . I understand her . Right now she is okay . My mother can be demanding. I do what I need to do around the house-take care of my kids and usually ignore her . LOL . She's a control freak .
