Hi everyone,
I wanted to get advice and I wasn't really sure where to go. My concern is for my brother. He hasn't been diagnosed with autism but the more I read about it the more I feel he may have some form of it. I wanted to try and get a second opinion and I didn't really know where to go. My brother is now 25 and has always been very quiet around people and he hasn't really ever had any friends. Not since he was little anyway. He seems to struggle with social interactions I guess. He spends a lot of time on his own and had very specific interests. He is very intelligent with certain things....computing, politics and history. He doesn't really find anything else interesting. He likes routine and doesn't like it when we go away anywhere. He finds it difficult to interpret other peoples emotions I think. I don't know whether I am reading too much into things but I worry that he doesn't have any sort of social life. I don't really know what to think and was just hoping for some advice because I worry about him. This seemed like a good place to go!
Thank you x
