Default My 15 yr. old daughter has depression and social anxiety disorder, how can I reach

her? She has struggled with this going on 3 years. She is on an antidepressant. She does not seem to care about doing girl stuff like fixing her hair, makeup,clothes, shopping,or going anywhere. What can I do? Ive showed her ways to do things and she still is not interested in anything. She sees a psychiatrist, but needs a good counselor. Besides this, does anyone have any more detailed answers that I can do to help her discover her inner and outer beauty? Thanks!

Get her antidepressant changed - the idea of an antidepressant is that it makes you feel a hell of a lot better. If it isn't doing this then it's wrong for you.

Look into psychotherapy - it's very good. I am speaking from experience.

Why not plan a movie night for the both of you. popcorn sweets the lot and let her pick what to watch. it'll allow you both to spend some time together plus she might open up to you stop and stop asking her questions let her come to you.
