my son would come home from a week with his dad, lock himself in his room and stay there for hours. his preferred coping skill was sleep, however he could attain it. He needed the alone time to re-calibrate. She probably does too.

serenity prayer is a good coping tool ...

"Someone I loved once gave me
A box full of darkness.
It took me years to understand,
That this too, was a gift."
