Hi,
My 17 yr old made a post in the adolescent autism forum and no one has replied. Any chance someone can reply even if 1 0r 2 posts. She is seriously thinking about anti anxiety meds. I know she will check this forum when she gets out of school late in the arvo. Be sad to see if she has no reply, this is maybe her 2 post and I wouldn't mind if she felt this place could offer her some solace. Thankyou

That forum is notoriously quiet.

I did run over there but I don't think I have anything useful to add.

I can't remember exactly, but I think it took several messages and a couple of weeks to get any replies. I know the feeling.

I am glad I could help with your daughter's post.
