My beautiful, kind, loving daughter has turned into a miserable, defiant and broken young girl. She feels that her family have rejected her and don't want to be with her. Self harm came into the picture a couple of years ago and she has been seeing a psychologist for that and social anxiety. Some days she refuses to eat and can't sleep. Doctor prescribed melatonin but she won't take it. I put boundaries on screen time which gets received with such defiance and hatred. The awful tone that she speaks to me (and her Dad) in is just so unnecessary and rude. Tonight I told her that if she continues to speak to me in that tone, that I would take her computer and phone away. This was met with "then you are taking everything away from me and I might as well commit suicide!". I am at the end of my tether. She says that I am controlling because I make her eat and give her boundaries and try administer the melatonin as prescribed by the doctor. I love her so much but I feel that I am losing her.

This scares me too as who knows who this person is?? My husband and I don't want to push her too far and then she does actually commit suicide but we can't let her hold us to ransom whenever she uses the phrase.
