Hi all
As I dont really want to put my daughter on medication I am
thinking of taking her to a homeopath
I have a leaflet on one lady Annie Hall she charges �68 for first visit
and �30 each visit after that this lady has apparently visited local autism
groups so she obviously thinks certain problems can be helped
Anyone tried this and also What is the treatment used???? unsure

Thanks for all replies
I think my daughter does want to go to school but does not like any change or
anything going wrong missing the bus is a bigi for her as she automatically
thinks of being late and not knowing where to go even though we would have got her there on time she couldnt see that
on these occasions I would rather keep her at home than see her going to school
hysterical and everything getting on top of her at school
unfortunatly my family cannot see this and think im letting her get away with it
There view if she is bungled in the car and left at school it will make her think twice
about missing the bus again

Hi
anyone else in this position
couldnt get my teenage daughter to school today she missed bus then panicks as
she thinks she'll be late my dad was going to take her but she worked herself
up so much she didnt go she couldnt understand that she wouldnt have even been
late.
my parents think I should let them force her to go and just drop her off even though shes in a state crying etc they think shes doing it on purpose to defy me and im too soft on her
and she gets away with things as im on my own
even though shes been diagnosed people still think she'll snap out of it if im harder on her the thing is I just want her to get on and be happy
maybe thats where im going wrong???

Hi all
you might think its an unusual question
but I just wondered how your kids coped with pets,
how gentle they were and whether they were actually
kind to them or not

Hi tree
Just read your post you could have been talking about my own daughter
at that age
At least you are getting her assesed I didnt until she was 10, 13 when diagnosed
with a form of asd
Wish Id have done more about it when she was little
Your doing the right thing

Yes I agree school hols are much more stress free
My daughter only does homework in a couple of subjects as I was having the
same trouble as you it was so stressful the school was only too happy to cut
down homework basically they are happy with whatever i dicide

Thanks for all your replies
It sounds as though risperdol has helped many kids
Unfortunatly weight gain would cause more stress for my daughter
she is in her teenage years and looks are everything
She worries about her weight anyway and either wont eat (not very often) or eats for England
It looks like risperdol is not for her
At the moment I am looking into homeopathy
Any views ?

Have been advised risperdol may help my teenage daughters anxiety&stress levels
(if I want to go down that road)
Anyone out there know if this can cause weight gain
if so it would be a big problem

I would like to try them if you have some saved
Anything that might help
thanks Tracey

yes I think the school holidays make a big difference to my daughters behaviour its much more relaxed
Idont know about evening primrose but im sure omega 3 (�1.70) wilkinsons
are making a difference (calmer)
T
-
Thank you both for replies
My daughter has been taking omega 3 for afew weeks now
Ihave changed her from eyeq as I have read on previous posts eyeq has
evening primrose in and mixed with fish oils is not always suitable for asds?
Touching wood as I speak I can see slight difference since shes been on omega 3

It just makes me wonder just how much my daughter can control
her temper
We have had a few days away and she was with other teenagers
doing there own thing (she seemed to cope pretty well)
At the moment she is at a friends house for a couple of days (again ok)
When shes at home with me we can have days where shes lovely
but all the stress and anxiety of school and other stressful things seem to come out
when shes at home
Also her rages (which can be big) just happen at home
it sets me thinking is she saving them up for mum because she can.
Things got so bad a few weeks ago I was given the option of different medications
I now wonder if this is needed
I think she also gets pmt as we have a good couple of weeks followed by
a nightmare of a time
Advice anyone

My teenage daughter can have a placid run for days
and then we have a week of walking on eggshell as stress levels
are so high anything can spark her off
totally one extreen to the other

Hi Margot10
My daughter was alot like that as she was growing up,
but wasnt actually diagnosed untill her teens
She has got a form of asd (quite a mixture really)
I can see the lovely personality in her but it does not always come across
like that says the wrong things etc.
When temper gets the better of her its a world war.
Its hard to say whether a diagnosis is a good thing or not(I think it probobly is)
I went for years without one and now I have I think I let her get away with
more (as I think well she cant help it) not always a good idea.

Hi Amanda
Most punishments dont seem to work with my daughter
because at the time she is so focused on the item when it gets spoilt.
The thing is she is so careful with her things so that they stay in perfect
condition that when things happen to them she cannot understand why.
I try and tell her not to worry so much and just enjoy the things, which she
does try but cant seem to let go and relax, she knows shes a worrier and
it really gets her down.

hI ceecee
My daughter has always been like this so I should probobly be used to it
by now.
Its just that as shes got older the result of a blow out when her things do get damaged are far worse I try my best to keep her calm but when things do get spoilt she can trash her room and be aggressive and you cannot reason with her
I hoped as she got older this problem would calm down, how wrong can I get.

Anyone else have this problem
stupidly allowed my teenage daughter to buy some glittery aladdin type
shoes yesterday (material with little gems sewn in them)
sat in the shop ages explaining thet would soon get spoilt and wouldnt last.
she begged and pleaded saying she wouldnt worry.
Today is a different story panicking already checking them every 2 minuites
this is before they have actually been worn
Cursing myself for letting her get them but it seems such a shame not to let
her have pretty things
Once shes had them abit I know this will wear off and
she'll relax (a little)
but now its obsession of the moment

Thanks Kathryn I did photocopy a couple of pages before sending it off
Very nearly ripped the whole thing up and threw it in the bin especially
after speaking to cahms lady who asked what my daughter thought
of the claim my response was "she doesnt know" Imight not even get it
I think shes thinking of the future (claiming herself etc)
Why make problems for myself as response would either be I dont need to
get that or Ill spend all the money down the shops
