Autism Discussion Page: Rigidity

from Autism Discussion Page:

Just substitute Brad for Ty.... and moderate anxiety to Severe anxiety.......

Our everyday! "Brad has rigidity issues that are common for many on the spectrum. He has moderate generalized anxiety and is fearful of uncertainty. He needs to keep his world very predictable; hence, he does better when his day is very routine and predictable. Unfortunately for the family, he holds tight to some very rigid routines (dressing, meal time, before bed, leaving the house, doing self care, etc.) and dedicates that the entire family follow his desire for sameness. If any variation occurs it has to be initiated and controlled by him."-
