I once asked my pediatrician on top off all the other stuff that I was mentioning that my son was very anxious...and he asked my son, do you worry alot? and my son (at age 7) said "all the time". So, doctor told me that if it is not keeping him up at night, nothing to worry about...it is normal for some kids to worry. Needless to say, I got wise and pursued other avenues and he was finally diagnosed ASD, Anxiety and ADHD (which I think are natural trailers to ASD)...of course I changed doctors! Also learned not to trust the schools but that is another story altogether!Terrinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8704944989291935147.post-41362526530467247382010-06-26T21:39:04.439-04:002010-06-26T21:39:04.439-04:00You know many years ago I saw a shrink (no supri...You know many years ago I saw a shrink (no suprise there). I was having issues dealing with the death of my mom, best friend and the ending of a family relationship with my brother, The shrink told me to write everything I was feeling down. This of course was BB (Before Blogging) I think that what you are doing is wonderful and if others read it and they see that someone else may feel like they do or are going through what they are going through, you will all give each other a little solice. You Autism Moms rock, and in my absence the fact that you have a great support system means everything. You are an AWSOME mom and make me proud every day XOKaiseihhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07978339539573138196noreply@blogger.com
