[quote=Anonymous]Sounds very similar to my ASD DS who hates anything being pointed out that’s “not ok”. I wonder whether some of the added stress might also come from her maturing. My DD of the same age was absolutely panic-stricken at the expected changes in her body as she enters adolescence. She had heard some of the other girls talk in her class, and we went through a year of panicky expectation that something might not be going right or that she might not manage the changes well. Translate that into an ASD brain, and it’s denial and “I’m fine” as the anxiety is externalized in fight or flight. [/quote]
