Need help with Anti-Social Daughter.?

Alright, I'm boring my nephew's account here.
I am a mother to a fourteen year old girl, she's going on fifteen this september.

Anyhow, she is stuck on the computer 14-16 hours a day, stays up more then half the night, sleeps during the day, ect.

She hates going outside, and hates excercise, although she is at a very healthy weight because of what she eats.

She tells me that life is no longer exciting for her, and the only thing 'exciting' for her are these online 'roleplays' I've never heard of them, but she said something about a 'gaiaonline' or 'roleplaying fourm'.

But anyways, she has a temper, and avoids all her friends, all she ever does is go on the computer, read, draw, or lock herself up in her room.

She's always getting sick constantly, and saying she can't go to school, and other things.

Anyways is there anything I can do for her? Medicine, therapy?
I'm thinking about bringing her to a doctor, but I'm not sure, its been going on for a few years now.

She's also failing at school, and has become violent, and has random mood swings.

I thought it was just a phase, like all teenagers go through... but it hasn't gone away yet, and thats why I'm asking if this is normal.

I'm 16 and honestly i can say i've been there as a 12-14 year old. My mother and i fought constantly when i was that age over the weirdest things. I don't have any real 'medical advice' but from my experience what was going on in my head was that i felt like my mom was just too into my life, but i'm really close to her now. I however am NOT advising you let her do whatever she wants because that can lead to your daughter become a 'wild child.' i would just suggest that you let your daughter know that you're there for her if she ever needs anything at anytime at all. i'd encourage her to go to school maybe make some new friends. one thing i'd definetly NOT do is tell her that she's being distant, or something is wrong with her, this will only make her feel worse.


Believe me things will change in a year when she has more freedom, maybe get a car, or a sweet sixteen?! she might just need something to look forward to.


Hope everything works out!
