[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 477633, member: 84"] Many people on the spectrum have anxiety issues, I think it's also related to the social thing unless they happen to have an anxiety type diagnosis along with it. Not hard to imagine, if you don't feel comfortable in most social situations, it's probably going to make you feel anxious. My mom still doesn't get that Travis is autistic, it doesn't help that she refuses to educate herself on the topic. She also tends to forget he has most of his other dxes too. She's been wanting to firmly believe he is normal as long as I first noticed there were issues (birth). She can't handle their being something wrong with a member of the family, a quirk of hers. An annoying one. You can offer your mom some educational literature, but you'll also have to remind her that everyone is also an individual and won't display all the same characteristics, heck some of them come and go and come back again. lol It's not up to you to convince her, and you'll make yourself miserable trying. Autism is a neurobiological disorder. I know most kids on the spectrum here see psychiatrists ect for treatment, my son saw a neurologist who specialized in autism and tourettes syndrome, who could also treat him for his other neuro issues. psychiatrists and tdocs never worked for Travis. I think with him it was difficult for them to grasp the whole picture. I had far better success with his neuro and the neurophsychologist that worked with him. Hugs Hugs. [/QUOTE]
