My 23-year-old battles depression from time to time, and of course won't get help for it. When she was on antidepressants, there was such a positive change in her. Ugh. She won't do counseling either.
She does have goals and is very busy with the job at the nursery/landscaping business here in town, along with trim jobs on horses (does that in the evenings). Her codependency issues are what bog her down. She still remains in contact with the EXABF, and I can always tell when they've been texting back and forth, and he's quacking and blaming. Sigh.
There are days I want to shake some sense into her! It's tough being a mom for sure.
My 33-year-old is the depressed drifter who hasn't had goals in probably 15 years. She has no desire to better her life.
I pray for her. That's something that I can do.
