    Hi @and15 :) Thank you for reaching out to us. This sounds like a challenging situation. 

    I'm not a parent, so I can't pretend to know what you're going through, but I hope another member with a similar experience will see and respond to your post soon.

    In the meantime, I'm wondering whether you might find it helpful to access one of our friendly family services? 

    Are you and your daughter receiving support from any medical professionals to support you with this?

    That's great news @and15 :) I hope you find Parents Connect helpful! 

    Hopefully CAMHS will be able to help you work out some new solutions that work a bit better. These things can take time, for sure.
