[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d say look for specialized support, CBT. Autism is different than anxiety or social anxiety.[/quote] Is it always, though? Also, based on OP's description, DBT might be more suited to her situation.[/quote] Autism is one of the topics that dcum is rather ignorant on. Yes, autism is always different than anxiety, that’s why suggesting things like therapy and meds might not work well for OPs daughter. It’s a lifelong disability that requires support in some way. Normal activities are that much harder. Autistic individuals might seem like their able to function normally but it requires a lot of effort.[/quote]
