[quote=Anonymous]One possibility to consider is that DD might be strongly introverted. That can cause significant social anxiety and awkwardness. I would suggest that OP read the book “Quiet” and see if that is part of the puzzle. If it merely is strong introversion, that would still be in the normal range, but it is less common than other personalities. If that is the case, pharmaceutical treatment might not be sensible. Such people often are naturally home bodies. They often have just 1 or 2 friends they feel comfortable with. They usually can benefit from social skills classes and from therapy to help them be more comfortable expressing themselves with words in unfamiliar groups of people. It is a possibility, only OP could say if it applies to her DD.[/quote]
