Hey calico...I had the same problem with my daughter she was a exceptional child she never gave me an ounce of trouble here whole life..we did go through the usual teenager stuff and it was around 15..so you are right on schedule...But after high school she was depressed also her boyfriend of 3 years broke up with her 1 week before graduation and I think it just set her off..she was depressed then became anorexic from the shock of why they broke up there was really no reason for it..so she blamed it on her weight which she never had a problem with..>all you can do is be there for her when she wants to talk it is sooooo hard that is all I could do ...and your heart breaks you think that you did everything right and that is the problem these children can have these problems even if you are the best parents..she is great daughter and now has a child of her own and is very very happy so just be patient you can get through the rough times just be there and try not to be too pushy..good luck ...Mystic
