[quote=Anonymous]It's autism and/or anxiety. High-functioning autism often comes with a lot of social anxiety. You need to recognize his fears and his efforts when he does socialize and honor his downtime when he needs to recuperate. You cannot fix this with meds, OP, and it's best that he's not on SSRIs all his life. He needs to build self-awareness and understanding that sometimes social interactions are necessary. It's difficult. We're all HFA with social anxiety in this family. [/quote]
