I'm at my wits end. I just can't get anything out of Amanda. About an hour ago I totally lost my composure in front of her-- shouted and used expletives and then burst into tears-- and she had no reaction, no affect at all. What am I supposed to do with that?I'm so angry and frustrated and upset. I left a phone message for her doctor and I could barely keep my composure.
I just can't take much more of this.
We've been home for two days. I think Amanda made herself vomit so that I would not send her to school. Yeah, she vomited in her bedroom over night and didn't do a thing about it. I discovered it when I went to get her up for school yesterday morning. She was fine yesterday (slept a lot) but last evening when I mentioned going to school, she was sick again. She's barely eating. She's just wasting away and there doesn't seem to be a god damned thing I can do about it.
EDITED TO ADD: We're admitting her to the hospital. This is killing me.

Oh, Trop...hang on. One foot in front of the other. This is a VERY good thing, admitting her. She will get the help that she needs and maybe you can get some answers......

Sounds like it was time for the hospital, but I can't imagine how difficult that is for you all.

I'm thinking of you too, darlin.
Wow. My heart goes out to you. I can sense how much pain you are in and how hard this is. I hope the docs can help Amanda get balanced. Mental illness is so hard.... you are in my prayers. You've always been there for me. I'm here for you if you need me.
