In therapy the counsellor use to reply to emails but now won't. I asked about it yesterday and he said not to encourage dependency. But I was left guessing why he wasn't replying. Is it me or is the ASD making it hard to understand the situation? Not knowing what is going on has made me anxious. Would you find it hard to understand because of your autism?
Yes, they have professional guidelines and discouraging dependency is one of them explicitly. So it's nothing personal and not your autism.
Good that you ask the question, don't agonise, ask away :)
