I dont have any urls or nothing fancy but I do have a granddaughter that has a uniqu addiction that people over look yes she autistic and she was also abused she is addicted to self harming it’s something that medication makes worse when she was 16 we got her and I tried to put her someplace long term so she could get help keep in mind we don’t have an autism diagnosis until she was 17 because of her age she was turned away everywhere because she was to old for adolescent facility and to young for an adult facility the hospital just really gave her the ammunition to further self harm by adding and adding medication so much so that she would get extremely depressed aggressive then finally she took enough medication for the state to take custody of her we really need to look into more facilities that are for people like her or something she’s probably never going to get better the only place their was for her to be put is in a nursing home of all places why can’t we creat policy’s for these type of young people or something our mental health crisis is so bad in this country the school that she was going to didn’t care didn’t even catch the diagnosis for some reason she could just skip class and self harm and they would even care until she started her senior year wear I live the teacher did everything she could for us and her but this shouldn’t have been caught long time ago please whoever reads this take it seriously she almost died on my couch from self harming with medication their was nothing I could do she also has othe diagnosis that I’ve never heard of and neither has anyone else such as Dmdd odd and a whole list of other their thing young people like her are just being forgotten
