Hi all im new to speaking out on this site pretty much,but i really like what i read and its so so helpful for me to see and under stand what my 16 year old daughter may be going through, she has asp. I also grew up with some of the same issues.....socialy speaking ,isolating from the world.I feel i can relate to her in many ways.i love talking with others or reading about articals that can directley help me focus on helping her.My most recent issues are ,she has been acting out in anger,she is having trouble at schoolreaching out to anyone,which i myself understand that,she is in a class for the first 4 periods,its a life skill class which makes her feel different from the rest of the kids at school anyway....she says she hates it but im not sure what the real story is.she is on the Honer roll and does very well with that for the most part,she has a nurse that helps moniter her meds every other week,and she has a team of professionials that help her and us navigate issues as that occure.Because of her behavior with anger,not progressing in counseling and only wanting to live in her fantasy world most the time it was suggested by the team what i thought about placeing her for treatment.Im her biggest advocte ,but truly dont no what to do with this ,they are affraid she may end up hurting me without thought,i beleive she acts out because she is so misunderstood on who she is inside and im trying so hard to learn as much as i can so i can share with them at our next meeting maybe the avenues any of you with asp or without might be abel to help me with.My heart is breaking because i dont want to send her away if its a matter of learning more about how to help her here or what.....im sure you can tell my mind is all over the place with worry ,fear ,loss ,the unknown.....i scream Help!! !! ! I myself have Bi polar and like i said i lived some of this too,and thats even more so that i am more emotional on this issue,i was always told i would be sent away because of my behavior,and that only made me feel more misunderstood and withdrawn.....can anyone help me see this from out of the box! i thank you all for your time as im in awe of to know what to say in her behalf or not. :cry:

Hi deedee26 :)

I'm finding it difficult to read your post, due to a lack of paragraphs.

Adding paragraphs (breaks in the text) will visually separate the main points of your post, thereby making it more coherent.

Maybe this will help those who cannot deal with a lack of paragraphing.

To all of you that might stop to read this ,i am very sorry for my lack of grammer and writing paragraphs i must have flunked that class!! ! Can you overlook this fault of mine to see if there is a way to help me, through your eyes or anyone else.Like i said im new here so i might not even be presenting this in the right place. Hey ,i still thank anyone for taking the time to read through this to see what is the most important part of what i"m saying or you can focus on my wall of text! :(
