[quote=Anonymous]OP, the part about asking for validation for all decisions confirms my thinking that this is a maaaajor anxiety issue. I'm not sure writing therapy off as "it didn't work once" is the move here, look for someone whose strength is helping people with anxiety develop coping skills. I don't think the phone calls are the cause. She doesn't have to go be uncomfortable if she doesn't have you, she will just continue to isolate. They're a symptom. It isn't in your power to fix thr cause right now, and it sounds frustrating that she's looking for a level of entertainment and validation that you will never be able to give in place of actual friends and confidence...but I don't think "sink or swim" will work either. Hang in there. [/quote]
