Hi
Newbie of a 13 year old whos not long been diagnosed ….(i was surprised as i thought it was a combination of adhd and general/separation/social anxiety)
We asked his GP if he could possibly try SSRI meds to help his anxiety/social anxiety/grumpyneed/irritability and misiphonia (snoring,chewiing,coughing,,breathing sounds cause him to rage)
He said he doesnt think they will work with Autism and recomends counsellor but theres no way he’d attend due to his anxiety/shyness.
Does anybody know if SSRI or any meds could help him a little because if its exhausted/stressed/worried his mum and dad for so long….god knows how hes feeling everyday.
is my doctor correct or should i perhaps get a second opinion about possible meds?
