Worry

Hi everyone, I'm Matthew.

I'm seventeen and have Autism. When I started secondary school a few years back I found it very difficult and often had panic attacks. In the end I was home taught by my Mum and Dad, I have now completed my home school education course. However I do still have my problems.

Everyday I worry a lot and half the time I do not know what I am worrying about. Most of the time I worry about my Mum, she has a bad knee, I worry about my Dad who collapsed a few weeks ago due to stress and often I worry about my Gran who sadly has Dementia. I have come here to discuss my worry's because I do not think it is fair me bombarding my parents with my problems. So I'm hoping you might be able to help me stop worrying.

Many thanks,

Matthew. Smile

  • Hello Yorkshirelass,

    Your daughter reminds me a lot of off me. I worry a lot as well, sometimes about my family, about my health, about my ill gran and sometimes I worry but I don't even know what I'm worrying about. I'm not sure if CBT would work for me, I dislike travelling a lot, I always worry about travelling even though I have car sickness medicene. I think what your doing for your daughter is the right thing to do, and I will look in to what you suggested.

    But thanks for the suggestion. It was very kind and thoughtful of you. I appreciate it a lot, thanks.

    Kindest regards,

    Matthew. Smile

    P.S "You might be able to help me with my other problems. I have posted on General Chat. Also I mentioned my gran being ill. On September the 20th 2014 I will be doing a walk for Alzthiemer's and as I don't like going out this is big for me. If you could spread the word to your friends and families, could you please see if they might be willing to donate just a little money. My page is on the link below:

    My family, me and my gran would be most grateful if you could spread what I am doing around. Thanks."
