Hello,
Welcome and thank you for reaching out to us.
It sounds like something may have happened recently that has played a role in your daughter's change in behaviour. You are very astute in picking up the red flags so there are 2 ways of going about this, however, your daughter needs to be on board and acknowledge that she needs some help.
A GP can do an initial assessment and can offer medication if needed along with setting up a mental health plan for seeing a psychologist. Alternatively, finding a psychologist that your daughter feels comfortable with to do an assessment and ongoing counselling is also fine, keeping in mind that a psychologist is not able to offer medication if needed, but can suggest making an appointment with GP for medication.
It can be very hard to feel motivated to do the things that are in your best interest when you are in the midst of a mental health crisis, so making suggestions as you have done is very supportive, just be aware that she may not be ready to take on those suggestions at present.
I hope this helps and please feel free to continue the conversation if you wish.
Take care of yourself too,
indigo
