Our younger daughter who is married with one baby and lives 20 mins away from us is suffering from anxiety and depression. She is seeing a therapist she trusts and is on medication. She used to visit us all the time and was a part of our lives. Now she has withdrawn and doesn't call or reply to texts. She pulled out of a family holiday to celebrate my husband's birthday recently. If there is a family meal she doesn't come. She says she is working through lots of problems from the past and assures me that she will be OK but needs time. I feel very low about it all. She had bad post natal depression after the birth of her baby nearly 2 years ago and stayed with us for a few weeks and says that she is now suffering from post traumatic stress disorder. She asked me to go to family therapy with her and I went along and thought it was helpful but she won't go again. The rest of the family keep asking me how she is and I don't know what to say. She tells me her marriage is good. She asked me to look after her baby once a week this term while she works and I am doing it but only see her for a few minutes when she collects him.....she won't come into our house for more than a couple of minutes. Has anyone been through this? Any advice? I am so sad - she used to be the life and soul of the family
