Worried parent here. My 16 y.o daughter is really struggling right now. She is overwhelmed with so much and her anxiety is so high.
She is meant to be working later today, but has messaged her boss saying she won't be in and might not return to the job.
Her teachers are saying she isn't herself, withdrawn and quiet. I know what she's doing here: It's a coping mechanism because she is trying to purposely push everyone away and not trust them because she is thinking about leaving school so it's an easier transition for herself.
We aren't sure if she'll be getting a taxi, and have a feeling it won't happen, so I will have to take her twice a week, which she isn't happy with so said if she doesn't get a taxi, she is going to leave school and do an online college.
She said she isn't capable of work, college, school and life because she can handle anything.
There is no structure at the moment, unless at home, she never knows what is happening on a daily basis with school. It's all too much for her right now and she's putting a lot of pressure on herself. I've tried helping but I don't know what else I can do, the biggest issues, taxi, is out of my control.
