Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Your young adult daughter is not "her", not happy, depressed and gets upset when you try to help her. If these are for some few days, it is possible that your daughter is deeply disappointed. Deep disappointment symptoms are same as depression symptoms but are short lived. Can you say for how many days your daughter is showing the symptoms? Usually depression is treated with anti-depression drugs and psychotherapy and counseling. Please do not attempt to treat the case at home except giving motivation and helpful empathy. I suggest you should talk to a psychologist or psychiatrist in person if your daughter is not co-operating.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
