She was newly diagnosed in October which I felt would be a godsend after months of searching, but now I feel more alone than ever in dealing with her diagnosis. She was in the hospital, a freshman in high school who couldn't deal with the peer pressure and drama. She came out of the hospital went back to school and crashed again. Her psych recommended finishing school online because she is stabilizing on her medications Her father, my ex-husband has been adamantly against her stopping public school. She has a hard time keeping motivated to do her work and I have to work full-time. Her father, my ex, has stopped paying support because he is so pissed. We don't have family where we live and few friends for support. I am losing my job because I have had to take off so much time from work to get her to her appts., take care of crises, psych visits etc. As much as I thought a diagnosis would help our life it feels our life is falling apart even more since the diagnosis. I don't know if pulling her out of the social circle is the answer and online schooling is? I just feel lost as to how to support her and feel my prayers for guidance are going on heard. Thanks for listening.

Nothing hurts me more than worrying about my daughter's feelings and how or if I can help her so I will pray for both of you!
