I’ve posted about my daughter a few times before- she’s 23 and is autistic and also has tourettes and adhd. She also has polycistic ovaries. I am really worried that she may be having a breakdown- things have gotten progressively worse since the beginning of the year. She cries all the time (she can cry for 3 hours at a time), she’s hardly sleeping at all, she has pressure of speech, she sometimes makes herself sick after she eats (she’s done this before but had stopped for a long time), she sometimes doesn’t eat or drink all day, she talks about dying, she goes for walks in her pyjamas (which is out of character for her), she keeps saying that ‘whoever has done this to me will be punished’ (when I asked her what she means by this she says it’s about the person who made her have special needs- I did try and explain to her that she’s always had them). Also we were walking the dog in some woods last week and she was talking to the trees and then to the river. She was discharged from the mental health service just under two months ago- I have tried to make contact with them but they feel she’s probably just adjusting to life without as much support from them and that her hormones will be making things much worse so to just keep an eye on her to see if she settles down. I was just wondering if she does sound like she is having a breakdown or l am just worrying too much and being unreasonable. Thank you for reading and sorry it’s long
