Not impressed I must admit but thats my son to a tee. Goes with the flow, expects things to bend the way he wants etc and will make zero effort to help himself.
We've spent over £500 on private consultant appointments to get him seen and presribed medication. Found out for the last 10 days hes "forgotten" to take it.
Hes almost 15 - I'm absolately bomping mad with him. Surely, at 14/15 he should be able to know the importance of it?
Dear NAS35349,

Perhaps this community needs to be split in two - one for people on the spectrum and one for NTs
NT?
I don’t think creating our own space where we feel safe is creating an ‘us’ and ‘them’ situation, I think it’s creating our own space where we feel safe to express ourselves. Lots of people have their own groups and I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone accusing them of creating an us and them situation. Feeling safe to express ourselves will help us find our voice and will encourage confidence in ourselves so we are better able to communicate more effectively with nt’s, should we desire to do so.
