Hello,I am the parent of and adult child with high functioning autism. I'm married and our son has an older brother.. He is a graduate with a good degree and currently working very part time in an area related to his degree. He is living with us and showing little sign of wanting to be independent which us fine as we are happy for him to find his own way. It can be a challenge as he doesn't want to talk much, tends to want to do his own thing and unfortunately suffers from anxiety. I've joined this group so I can share experiences and hopefully find a way to support my son in a positive way.
Hi Chris,Welcome to the online community. Our information page on anxiety may be useful for looking at ways that you can support your son in dealing with this - https://www.autism.org.uk/advice-and-guidance/topics/mental-health/anxietyBest wishes,Kevin Mod
