Hi,
I have a 12yo daughter who has struggled with friendships since she was young she has diagnosed adhd and is mediacated for that, however I believe she is autistic more towards the HFA end of the spectrum and we have just started the process to get evidence for a referall , she just doesn’t seem to ‘fit in’ she is just about to start at the 3rd secondary school since September, she got really bullied at the first which started from conflicts with peers then she was actually beaten up so I removed her and the same issues persisted in the next school with a particular group of girls so they said she could not stay as she was on trial for a managed move, I am really apprehensive about the 3rd school.
when she meets someone she is intense and she goes from stranger to best friend in a day even if the other person doesn’t feel the same and she can sometimes keep texting the other person.
she also thinks that when people taunt her and are unkind she is friends with them even though they treat her that way it’s very distressing.
has anyone else had a similar experience or can give some advice, it’s making me very I’ll and I have no one to turn to for advice and the schools have been useless.
thanks
