"Most doctors recommend abusive therapy to kids and teens" I've experienced that first hand and is the reason why I feel that being diagnosed was the worst thing to happen to me and is the reason why I typically try to hide the fact I'm autistic only ever admit it when I feel absolutely safe
I'm sorry that happened to you
This sounds terrible. My daughter recently got an autism diagnosis which we’ve been able to use to help get her better accommodations in school. Would you mind clueing me in to some of this abusive therapy stuff so that I can recognize it if she ends up in a situation like that?
Well when I was first diagnosed my school would just occasionally lock me in a room separated from the rest of my class and it only somewhat ended when my parents found out what was happening and even then the extra help I got was just doing my school work in a different room and when I tell them it's not helping my teacher would simply lock me up again all the extra help did was just preventing me from having a social life and all of this was happening even after changing schools and all my folks could do is find a psychiatrist that would undiagnose me Edit: in hindsight I recall seeing a reddit post I'm to lazy to dig back up on r/Vermont talking about how a pedophile was fired from a daycare and the comments were talking about how it turns out child abuse is commonplace in Vermont daycares and that very same predator got a job at a different daycare so I guess the moral of all this is if you're a parent keep your kids far away from Vermont the schools have abousers and the daycares have predators
