[quote=Anonymous]My aspie son totally melted down in a high pressure high school situation. I totally underestimated how difficult it would be for him to manage the workload (it hadn’t been a problem prior). His executive functioning totally broke down and he was not able to interact with his teachers to get help when he needed it. (And his strong perfectionist streak really did him in when his grades started dropping. He was an anxious, depressed mess.) Not to say that will happen for you but that was our experience. My DS is not a good communicator so we did not realize what was going on until things were very far gone. [/quote]
