[quote=Anonymous]My kid ate lunch alone every day in high school and was invited to zero parties and was generally miserable in high school. He absolutely blossomed in college and made a good group of friends and was so happy. He needed a hard reset to start over because I think he had sort of figured things out even in high school but no one gave him a chance. He did work with a great therapist who really helped him figure out a plan for approaching college. So have some hope; he really might do better in a new environment where people don’t have preconceptions of him. I’d encourage him to get an on campus job— that was a really good way for my DS to meet and socialize with classmates without the pressure of being “social” if that makes sense. [/quote]
