Recorded Live 10am PT Feb 1, 2022 #AutismExpert #Autism #AutismPodcast 0:00 Intro 4:17 My son is 8 and I want to know if recovery is still something to hope for. My son was diagnosed at 2 . At that time we were dealing with delayed speech. Six months ago he started stuttering. His behaviors are up and down. He is gluten and dairy free and has been on biomedical treatment for 3 years. Good behavior at school but aggression toward his younger sister and sometimes me. He wants to play with other kids, but doesn't know how. He is behind academically. He does well and then regressed. Please help. I want to meet adults who have recovered to know how we can get there too. 15:55 My son is 8 and is have been prescribed sertraline 50mg half a pill. To help with his anxiety He still has anxious behaviors like grinding his teeth and obsessing over his therapy swing at home. My question is He has taking his sertraline for a week now. His Neuropediatrucian prescribed it and it is the first time He is taking a med. 21:36 Beautiful. But sometimes I think things would have been easy if it was solely dependent on us. But its so much related to our kids, their mood , their behavior and their health. I completely agree with the answers, thank you and I am putting my efforts toward diet and supplements but I can't afford hours of ABA and more than an hour of speech a week so what should I do in that case? The autistic adults who have recovered or indistinguishable from their peers, not all of those parents who be rich to afford hours of ABA so what other ways they helped their kids? I really love to know please. 30:16 OKAY SO SOMEONE PLEASE HELP I just had the most horrifying experience ever with my son who is 4 and autistic. We're staying in a hotel as we are remodeling our home and our Ac/heat is currently down and we live in Florida and we are not built for the 30 degree weather. I accidentally fell asleep earlier with my son and daughter in the room, she fell asleep as well and he undid the latch and left. I woke up and he was gone and went into immediate panic and I called downstairs and he was there along with about 30 people and 2 police officers. There were a ton of kids with balloons so now he keeps wanting to go back down there. Is there anything I can buy to keep him in? I have no idea what to do. I put a heavy piece of furniture in front of the door that he some how can move?(he's a huge 4 year old) it was just overall a horrifying experience and I am open to any suggestions at all. Thank you so much, I feel like the worst mom in the world right now. 37:03 Mom of twin boys - 2.5 years. We have been doing ABA for over year. Kids are doing really well. Verbal not conversational yet. We are contemplating sending them to school. What are the key indicators that will help us make this decision? I don't want to waste their or my time by sending them to school. 43:35 Hello beautiful ladies , I got a TACA scholarship to see a maps doc .. any advice for my first visit? My son 7 yrs old ASD son is preverbal and has lots of sensory issues and he's a picky eater. 49:04 Can you please emphasize on diet for autism Dr. Doreen? My son was on GAPS diet for about 1 and half and he improved but GAPS diet is so restrict and I felt bad every time my son asked for something that was out of his diet. On the other hand my husband also believed that it was more like a punishments' to put my son on a restricted diet. Now he is on GAPS plus diet, meaning he is having some grains that are not allowed in GAPS diet. But as I mentioned earlier his behavior is always up and down and he is 8 years old but far from recovery which worries me the most. Not sure what specific diet other parents, specially parents with recovered kids, followed? I appreciate a discussion on this please. 56:16 can you please name/recommend some great MAPS doctors? Do you accept new patients Dr. Doreen? 58:32 Does ABA work when there is also dual diagnosis of pathological demand avoidance? My daughter is 9, is this too late for ABA. We are in Ontario Canada where the conservative government has frozen funding. https://www.autismnetwork.com/category/ask-dr-doreen/ https://www.tiktok.com/@askdrdoreen? Check out our Podcast!

Dr. Doreen Granpeesheh BCBA-D is back for another episode of Ask Dr. Doreen! Tune in as our host Shannon Penrod is joined by Dr. Doreen to answer questions written in by viewers! If you would like to participate in the live show, join us on YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, or Twitch. Tuesdays at 10am PT/1pm ET. https://www.autismnetwork.com/category/ask-dr-doreen/ https://www.tiktok.com/@askdrdoreen? 9:50 Sorry if this is personal haha, but as I've come to accept my autism I've also come to conclude that my bowel issues are most likely related to it. Is there a reason why autistic people have issues with their digestion? Is it solely because of our (at times, picky) diets, or is it just a thing that happens? 20:27 We just started dating about 2 weeks ago, before we even had kissed I told him that I didn't like light touches, especially on my face, actually that I didn't like that people touch my face at all (I still haven't told him that I'm autistic). After we starting dating he proceeded to caress my face, he said that It was just to check if I didn't like it, I said that I didn't and removed his hand. I saw him yesterday and I feel like I want to break up already, he touched my face constantly and I had to removed it everytime, and everytime he said that he forgot. Not only that, he loves to touch me all the time, I can't stand it, I don't feel comfortable, and sometimes I don't feel safe (we are gay). The thing is that I like him, sometimes I feel like I am the one that's wrong because that's been a problem in every relationship I've had. 29:10 Hello, my son can read flashcards, and can tell you the name of whatever you point out if he knows, but I can't understand why he can't express himself on his own. He has 4 words he said on his own. 31:32 I have a question as to therapies and services. My son was diagnosed with Autism and ADHD after 3 years finally and he is 7 everyone says early intervention and clearly he missed the early part. My question is will he continue to benefit from services he is just now starting at such an older age?? 38:53 Hi, my son is 9 yrs old autistic, he started saying few words in last six months. initially he had one word speech which regressed at 2yrs of age. is there any hope at this age that he will develop more speech and language? 41:20 Yes what he wants. Like want blueberries, want iPad, give hands etc. want yogurt. 46:00 Hi Dr. Doreen. My son has recently been telling me that he is unable to focus at all, especially in school. Are there ABA techniques to help with this? He is 11. This has happened more since he has had many changes at school. (His B.I. was just changed and also his therapist, right after coming back from Christmas break.) He keeps hitting his head saying he is stupid. He is frustrated with himself. 49:24 Would an ABA center based program be better than school where he gets zero one on one services? Could ADHD affect his ability to communicate and his academics? 49:19 Would an ABA center based program be better than school where he gets zero one on one services? Could ADHD affect his ability to communicate and his academics? 52:00 My parents are both on the Autism Spectrum and I would like to learn how to bridge the gap and better connect with them.

Autism Expert and pioneer in the field of Autism, Psychologist and BCBA, Dr. Doreen Granpeesheh is answers viewer questions! Dr. Doreen answers viewers questions about aggression, hitting, food selectivity and much more in this episode! Check it out! 6:32 My nine year old who has ADHD, PTSD and is on the spectrum is having such a hard time. We've missed almost a month of school due to Christmas break, snow days and covid. The slack of routine is sent him into a spiral. We're talking meltdowns at least every couple hours. Repeating the same sentences over and over again. We are working with a psychiatric nurse practitioner to get him further help. We're going to try occupational therapy for sensory overload. He's also on a blood pressure lowering medication that's supposed to help with sleep since he's up multiple times a night. We are also working on getting an official diagnosis. He sees a really good therapist but that also has been thrown out of whack due to the holidays and sickness. He lives with me, his step dad and our 4 other kids. I'm the only one who can remain patient and calm during his meltdowns. I'm exhausted. I'm grieving. I'm worried this is ruining my marriage. 19:30 Not sure if you already have your questions. I'm working with my son on reading with expression. He's very good at imitating my facial features and body gestures when I read. Our issue is he OVERLY exaggerates me to the point where it just looks awkward. I'm so proud of him because he definitely understands it but how would I get him to tone it down a little? I do praise him after because he's doing a great job. I just don't know if we should continue. I'm hoping working on prosody will lead to better reading comprehension. 23:55 Hello . Could you please share what goals related to daily life skill we can add in the IEP. (Elementary School Level) 27:50 hello everyone here is my question. what are some great resources for grief? I know that grief is a hard issue to talk about and since the pandemic is still going on. a good friends sister died I didn't know the sister but the death inspired me to ask the question. what are some good resources for people on the spectrum on grief 31:26 Hi, I wanted to ask how I can help my son with math. He's 11 and very smart, he can read and write he's very verbal, he can express if his in pain and all needs and wants, but I feel like the math. Part is just so hard for him, he still can't count to 100 by himself. But he can tell if someone was mean to him and can also have an argument with myself or his dad when he's upset. He has amazing Skills but I'm starting to think math is just one of his week ESS. But would like to help him because I feel he can learn it, been that he's so verbal and smart, please help. And thank you in advance. 38:05 Hello and thank you both for this opportunity! My son will be 8 in 2 weeks. He eats a handful of foods. He eats baked chips, peanut butter pretzels, and for dinner a vegan grilled cheese… ..I use the reward system with him. He also drinks watered down green smoothies. I can't get him to stop gagging at new foods. Any tips are appreciated! I've been watching all the videos on eating and trying to follow those directions. Thank you both! 45:59 Hi! If you are taking questions I would an advice on my dilemma. I have 3 grandchildren living with me. My youngest grandson is 12 and he is on the spectrum. He has come such along way being diagnosed at the age of four years old. Byron was non-verbal, head banger, with several meltdowns daily to now he is high functioning in the sense that he is verbal, smart and is artistic. We have had awesome help along the way. With therapist in ABA, counseling and CLS(Community Living Support workers). 58:00 My son is 4 years old and becomes aggressive when he cannot express himself. What techniques do you suggest we use to get him to be less aggressive? This is his first year in preschool around other children outside of his sisters at home. At first it was when other children invaded his space but now when he gets frustrated, he's beginning to lash out at other children. 1:03:15 This week on Autism Live! https://www.autismnetwork.com/category/ask-dr-doreen/ https://www.tiktok.com/@askdrdoreen?

Bad experience, lost 5 foods, list his juice that we used to put his vitamins into. 34:43 My kid just ate asparagus last night. Seriously.

Get ready for a lost episode of Ask Dr. Doreen! The Founder of the Center for autism and Related Disorders YOUR questions LIVE in real time! Don't miss it! This is the first episode of Ask Dr. Doreen during the COVID-19 quarantine! Please bear with us! Questions and times below. Questions: 23:00 – Hi Shannon and Dr. Doreen, from Northern Ireland. I've written to you many times and received amazing advice. Here I am again. My son is verbal and is now 15 years old, autistic, ADHD, learning disability and anxiety. He takes medication for his ADHD and fluoxetine for anxiety. As I write this, my son is going through a difficult time with his anxiety and hasn't left my bedroom from Sunday. One of his fears is a particular singer who happened to come on to the radio in school last Friday. It sounds so irrational to be afraid of something like this, but this seems to be how his anxiety affects him. Now he doesn't want to leave my bedroom and has a panic attack if I suggest watching TV in a different room. I am really at a loss as to how I can help him. I would really appreciate any advice you could give me. 37:38 – How are we going to continue therapy in all this mess? I'm terrified but I don't want my son to regress. 54:34 – Hello Dr. Doreen and Mrs. Shannon, I've written in a few weeks back about screaming. Can sudden onset of screaming, anxiety, mood change, defiance to do even daily routine tasks, say no to favorite activities in a 10 year old on the autism spectrum be PANDAS, or is it puberty? Thank you.

This is the first episode of Ask Dr. Doreen during the COVID-19 quarantine! Please bear with us! Questions and times below. Questions: 23:00 – Hi Shannon and Dr. Doreen, from Northern Ireland. I've written to you many times and received amazing advice. Here I am again. My son is verbal and is now 15 years old, autistic, ADHD, learning disability and anxiety. He takes medication for his ADHD and fluoxetine for anxiety. As I write this, my son is going through a difficult time with his anxiety and hasn't left my bedroom from Sunday. One of his fears is a particular singer who happened to come on to the radio in school last Friday. It sounds so irrational to be afraid of something like this, but this seems to be how his anxiety affects him. Now he doesn't want to leave my bedroom and has a panic attack if I suggest watching TV in a different room. I am really at a loss as to how I can help him. I would really appreciate any advice you could give me. 37:38 – How are we going to continue therapy in all this mess? I'm terrified but I don't want my son to regress. 54:34 – Hello Dr. Doreen and Mrs. Shannon, I've written in a few weeks back about screaming.

I'm not a parent, but I'm the youngest child in the family (20). My mom (59) has scoliosis, has extreme back pain, arthritis, one working eye, upon other issues, including depression. My sister (25), has autism. She talks and makes noises constantly, repeating things she's heard over and over and over again. I'm not sure if echolalia is the right term for it, but it's close enough. This happens every day, all day. Even when she's eating and trying to fall asleep. I've put up with it for my 20 years of living with her. I'm more or less numb to it now, but sometimes one of her noises or sayings really gets to me. I used to be the one most upset by her, but now it seems that my mom can't take it anymore. The past few months, she has been increasingly more and more stressed, at her wits end at trying to ease my sister's constant rambling. She keeps saying that she can't take it anymore, and at one point, gestured a motion of strangulation towards her, while her back was turned. We've tried everything, but it seems like we're too far gone to control her. Ignoring her does nothing, she will keep doing whatever she's doing. Yelling at her does nothing either, she will think it's funny and laugh at you. Taking her belongings away from her makes it worse. My mom tried to take her iPad (the only thing she plays on all day) away, and she grabbed hold of my mom's arm very tightly. She hurt her. There's a huge bruise near her elbow now. I just don't know what to do anymore. Mom being stressed directly affects me, as she will usually be unable to control her anger and take it out on me by yelling. Mom says she can't help it, sister can't help being autistic, and I can't help being so f'ing done with the situation. I'm so tired. I just want peace. We don't have a car, we live in an apartment, there's no other options. We can't do anything. Every solution that we've come up with ends up with us being too poor to go through with it. I feel like someone is going to snap one of these days. It could be any of us. Please, God, help me." 15:05 Best Book Winners in the 2021 Autism Live Gift & Toy Guide! 15:51 Best Book Winner Review Baby/Toddler: Where's the Bear?
