I think, like Dinah, I would have been upset by accusation that I could change being depressed if I wanted to. I think it's interesting that you found a parallel between how your T sees you and how you see your daughter. It reminds me of how patient T's must be. I'm sure they can sit there and see if the client would only do X or understand Y, he/she wouldn't have all of this misery. But a patient T like a patient parent has to sit back and let the person figure it out for themselves. The difference is that a parent's need to make everything OK for the child is much more powerful and goes on 24 hours a day. It sounds like your daughter is lucky to have you and all of your concern and involvement. I hope she will appreciate it someday, sooner rather than later. I'm sorry you're having such a hard time.
