[quote=Anonymous]The concern I would have is that the less she gos out the harder it is. Conversely success begets success. I would be considering what my expectations are and how to get there. We had a similar situation where anxiety completely debilitated my son. And the two things that moved him along was identifying expectations and enforcing them even if we had to physically take him out of the house and a psychiatrist who listened and prescribed the as close to perfect cocktail of medication that he has ever had. Had we not forced the issue, I am convinced he’d still be holed up in my living room. It took a long time though. Another issue you are facing is that if you are expecting her to get a job, the longer she goes without one, the harder it is to get one. Eventually it’s virtually impossible. [/quote]
