my teenager daughter

Hi everyone its quite hard to write down our feelings but I was wondering

If any other parents are going through the same thing or it is a typical teenager

Well my daughter is turning 16 in september and doesnt attend school as she has been diagonsed with chronic fatigue she doesnt talk to anyone has no friends she doesn't talk to me if I try to talk to her she gets defensive says she hates talking she talks to herself a lot more and spends all her time with her headphones in as a parent I want her to come to me and hate the silences that we share 7 days a week when we go for a walk when she isnt tired I think great we can talk but she walks behind and talks to herself I feel numb inside and would love to hear from anyone else who is going through the same or any advice would be welcomed x

    Thank you for your wise words i just wish I could wave a magic wand and help every single child 

    You should be aware that every fight you win on behalf of your daughter contributes incremental benefit to us all. No magic wand necessary, just lobbying...
