writes: I'm a mother who has a 29 year old daughter who is a bit of an introvert. She still lives with me and my husband, she has no friends, never goes out and has never had a boyfriend, thankfully she works full time and she doesn't get on with the people she works with but everytime I suggest she maybe join a club or get a hobby she goes all quiet on me, I just want to help her as I feel I have made her this way. She only comes out her room to go to work and I don't know how to help her. We go out but it's not ideal going out with me all the time, I know she wishes she had friends and she feels she has missed out but she is not willing to change or helpherself. Can anyone suggest anything that I could do.

Have you ever just left your daughter to her own devices and let her live her own life????? IF not, then why not try doing so, now? She'll probably be just fine....
Good luck, to both of you....

Why doesn't she get on with people at work, does she not fit in there? Nowadays she is lucky to work, but maybe a new job would help. It also sounds like she is lacking confidence and needs a boost. Does she look after her appearance,buy clothes,get her hair cut? Does she drive ? Driving lessons boost confidence and then a car would enable her to get about.
Has she spoken to anyone professional - is it depression she has perhaps? Maybe suggest a chat with her GP.
Why do you feel you have made her this way?
