[quote=Anonymous]Was she ever able to make friends? What wa high school like for her? While I do think it’s important that you’re her “anchor” (as PP put it), due to her obvious social isolation and loneliness, I do understand why it’s not feeling healthy, especially if she seems to be hanging up frustrated because she wants long calls each time with plenty to discuss. That part does seem a bit more concerning - like she’s self-soothing her anxiety. Does it feel like there’s a compulsive nature to it? My mom was definitely my sounding board in college and she talked me through so many of my growing pains and struggles; she was my port in the storm and it just gave me comfort to know I had a home base. And that’s what I was thinking when I encouraged you to continue to be there for you upthread. But I also understand your concern. What was she like before college? How was your relationship?[/quote]
