Parent of neurodivergent teen

BellaB

Hi everyone, I’m Bella. My teen is 15 and has an ASD diagnosis. I’m hoping to get some advice and support from the group, as well as share and useful experiences of my own. Thanks

  • Hi Bella, nice to meet you. I think this group will be really helpful lots of parents share tips, small wins, and tricky moments, so you’re not alone in figuring things out

    Can anyone direct me where to look to find advice about helping my teen overcome anxiety about having injections? Inoculations haven’t been able to go ahead and I worry how medical treatment would go ahead if it were ever needed. We are currently on a long waiting list for specialist dental treatment for people with additional needs.

    Dear Bella, 

    Welcome to the online community, it is great to have you here. The community may have some good suggestions on how to manage injections, so I will wait to see if they have any specific advice on this- it may be worth doing a separate post for this so it is easily visible to members.

    A resource that may be worth taking a look at is My health passport - this is a passport that can be taken to appointments and will have important information that can be taken into account during treatments.

    I hope this community is helpful for you. 

    Best wishes,

    Olivia Mod
