Wasn't sure where to post this. My daughter has in the past had bad meltdowns due to her autism but has been better in the last year. Tonight she had a bad meltdown where she admitted she's had self harming thoughts and is very stressed about school. The thing is at school one of the boys keeps saying things like who is your friend? do you have a friend? Stupid things that if she replied fuck off he'd probably stop but she can't do that. She sees it as him picking on her, it sounds horrible but I don't see it that way and don't think the school will either. She is also worried about moving house and her friend moving away in the summer
My husband has,given her the day off tomorrow and we will be going to the doctor over these dark thoughts but I feel a bit stressed. There seems to be no support for children with autism especially if they're high functioning. Is there some support I don't know about? How do I help my daughter?
