Thanks again! Guys! I must admit that sometimes I think it must be Me doing all the worrying here, but let me say that it does hurt to see my son being taken Advantage of and to see him night after night stuck alone in his room. He has no interest in anything much let alone sport. His idea of entertainment is spinning some bay blade tops on a wooden tray! For hours on end! He does go on the Internet but no one ever talks back to him, or just makes fun of him. I can see he's getting a bit depressed by it all. Hence my posts on here.

Cathyz Hang in there! things do get better as our precious aspies get older. At the age of 10 my son had a few probs like panic attacks that left him uncontious and having flapping attacks. He heard voices too in his head, but the thing was we learnt that when things got tough for him the best thing was to respect his space and gave him time to chill out. When he had a fizzy thing as we called it, we just said it was ok and let him talk about how he felt afterwards. Things have calmed down alot since he has got older. Just wish he would interact more!

Hi, just wondering if any one can suggest anything to help with my sons loneliness? He is 18 but does his best to talk to people but because he has AS people tend to shy away from him. I really feel for him as I see him try his best only to be rejected time after time. It has got to the point of him trying to "buy" friendship by giving some of his stuff away. He seems to spend most of his time on playing games that are suited to much younger children on the computer for weeks on end ( 6 hours everyday! ) trying to make up for his lack of interaction with people. This has made him very easy to take advantage of
