[quote=Anonymous]Is she in therapy or would she be open to it? She needs to learn coping skills to deal with her anxiety and stress without numbing - with food or alcohol/drugs later on. I wish my own family had helped me gain these skills at her age because I went from food to alcohol for stress-coping in my 20s and because it never interfered with my career or dating life no one thought it was a problem but I was miserable. It took a lot of therapy and giving up booze for me to finally address my actual anxiety (cognitive behavioral therapy, learning how to identify and address rumination, gratitude practices, finding exercise that I enjoyed, etc) and it would have changed my teens and 20s to have my family help me address the underlying feelings at a younger age.[/quote]
