Need advice have a 19 year old daughter battling depression

Jpnpkr:

Thank you for looking out for you daughter.

It doesn't seem like this problem started last week.

As her mother, you would know her history.

You're starting out where she has a fit, not where the possible trauma started.

When did these fits start? Why?

My sister had fits, and my brother. My mother knew full well what was going on but never breathed a word.

Had she ever had trauma?

You said, ". She overdosed in April and is constantly threatening suicide. She is abusive and hits and screams at a drop of a hat."

My sister was just like that. She had trauma in childhood.

You said, "What can I do. She is technically an adult in a child's body. Any suggestions"

You said she was an adult in a child's body.

Or, she is an emotional 5-year-old. What happened at 5?

She can be thankful that she has a mother who cares. A lot of them don't.

sounds like she needs a peer buddy. seek out your local mental health centre and ask about young people needing assistance.
