[quote=Anonymous]In my case with spouse and oldest child w it, my spouse got diagnosed first while we were married. I think the normal increase in responsibilities bring to light more of the symptoms, more severely, more frequently and then either good coping or bad coping methods (lashing out) take over. So this could be any age- middle school, high school, college, having a kid plus working. It’s still hell. I’ve “lowered the bar” and “dropped (so many normal) expectations”, and “stopped asking them to do anything” that it’s pretty detached at this point. Not that either of them realize it; they don’t need or want the social interaction or responsibilities anyhow. [/quote]
