    having read all posts seems advice is not too worry too much as she may be content with own company

    thing is shes constantly bored but anything i suggest is boring also getting ready can take a very long time

    due to perfection so it all takes lots of time and if something goes wrong thats it she'll not go

    im trying too get her too do sporty activities too no avail

    I think she wants too be out there and its drivin her up the wall bein with me 24/7

    hi pearl

    ive looked on the NAS website theres nothing in our area

    there are so many problems regarding getting out its soo difficult but once shes

    out there more often than not things go ok

    am going to get a couple of cog therapy sessions in home through cahms after lots of letters to them

    saying they should be helping more

    also have a lady coming round friday (homeopath) who may have help or advice

    we keep trying

    I have posted before on this site with similar problems my daughter is fifteen and a half has been out of school now

    for over a yeardue too different problems mainly anxiety peer problema work etc

    am now teaching her myself too the best of my ability with work sent home from school

    It seems now things are getting worse as she gets older going out is a big problem as things have to

    be perfect make up clothes etc sometimes shell spend 2 hours getting ready then something will go wrong

    too stop her going

    she doesnt mix as the friend she had feels let down as my daughter doesnt go to school so they fall out

    she worries all the time over everything and gets stressed and anxious regularly

    cahms are no help as we cant get her to go out anywhere the doctor at cahms says medication wont help

    as its not deppression and the asd is long term

    i feel at a loss on how too help and it breaks my heart too think she never goes out as i know when she does

    get out there shes fine more often than not

    my gp is hopeless with no understanding not that shed go too see him anyway

    any help or advice would be appriciated as i know shes becoming more and more dependant on me being there

    as were together 24/7

    thanks all for posts have wrote back to camhs stating in my opinion they should be looking at ways they can help my daughter in a way that she would benefit i can think of plenty that can be done unfortunatly we seem to be missing out on this as getting out of the house is difficult home visits by the professionals is what we need its the same with education home tuition is so hard to come by am still tryin

    Hi all

    havnt been on much recently moving house in a few weeks all been well so had alot too do.

    but not sure what too do about this had a letter from cahms yesterday suggesting they close my daughters file as they dont seem too be doing anything too help.

    Im in two minds i agree i get no help from them but feel its helpful to have them in the background as my daughter 15 and a half is still out of school 14months now and im still trying too get some home tuition now going through connections who seem quite helpful having said were still no further.

    the problem we have with tuition is my daughter wont always go out especially if something goes wrong or she doesnt look/feel right i have come to the conclusion you get no help from the proffesionals they just make you feel worse therefore im doing my best to teach as much as i can in the home myself

    just wondered any one any thoughts on the file closing bit even though theres no help whatsoever should i keep in there???????

    dont know anything about this brain gym but will look into it

    my friend was telling me about a game called brain game or something advertised

    on tv by chris tarrent my daughter said theres a nintendo ds game called

    brain somethingdont know if its the same thing

    lady from dore centre rung and said i cannot pay in installments has to be

    paid in full shes going to send me a dvd and more information so its giving me time

    to think about it

    am also wondering if it is dyslexia she has and how i would go about getting

    a test done for this although at 15 its never been picked up

    had lady from dore centre this afternoon

    she thinks from tests given my daughters main problem is dyslexia which is something i didnt

    think she had plus some adhd traits no mention of asd

    The dore programme takes approx 12 months in all and costs just under 2 grand

    with apparently really good results

    all to do with underdeveloped cerebellum they use certain brain exercises (different for each child)

    looking into it more now but i think i will go ahead paying by monthly installments

    If theres something out there that has a good chance of working i have to try it

    anyone with any knowledge on this would be greatfully recieved

    thanks again Kathryn for replying to my posts

    have read through your thread very interesting

    the lady from dore centre will be here soon so im

    going to go through the presentation with her and see what

    I think hopefully my daughter will sit in with us and give us her

    opinion as she is 16 this year and does not always cooporate when

    it comes to discussing these things

    Thanks again Tracey
