[quote=Anonymous]My 19 year old had no friends after the pandemic. Before that, he had been able to keep surface-level friends through school, but when he came back from virtual learning, he had no desire to seek out his those friends, or to make new ones. Perhaps this was always going to be the evolution of his autism, or perhaps this was triggered specifically by social isolation from peers during Covid, who knows. His inattentive ADHD is pretty severe, and he has accommodations in college for it, but he otherwise seems "nerdy neurotypical" if you're having a short conversation with him. Just... no friends. At all. I do worry about that, both for his private life and professional networking. [/quote]
