[QUOTE="keista, post: 526158, member: 11965"] Sorry sweetie, I can't write what's going through my head. You said you're in "the book phase"? Does that mean you don't have anyone in therapy? No counseling? No services of any kind? If that's the situation, you need to get everyone into therapy ASAP. He's got a [B]recent[/B] AS diagnosis? you all need to learn how to deal with this. Books are fine, but nothing beats hands on training. You could be missing just one tiny seemingly insignificant thing which should make a world of difference, but you won't know it unless someone points it out to you. A perfect example just happened recently to buddy. She very casually in conversation stated that "life was short" This sent her son into a fit of anxiety for two days while she figured out that it was this statement that triggered him. Once she identified the trigger she was able to talk to Q and calm his anxieties. This is one of those things that "normal" ppl don't think twice about, but difficult children think differently, and you (and the whole family) need help learning how difficult child thinks. Once you get into his world, you can bring him into your world. [/QUOTE]
