You son sounds a lot like mine in this regard. He has hit middle school and things have gotten worse for him since he is less shielded and coming into self awareness . I am now homeschooling for the first part of the day which has lessened his negative experiences but he is increasingly depressed and anxious and cycling from hating others to hating himself .

He has really been hurt by a few kids saying “ nobody likes you” to him.
I am feel thst all the negative feelings have now overwhelmed him so he is getting very little joy out of life. I am on verge of okaying medication and signed up to this forum to find out people’s experiences with Wellbutrin and fluoxetine. ( he’s been diagnosed Aspergers and ADD, has expressive and receptive communication delay and some ocd).
J did this self negative talk they told us she was depressed? Not sure if thats the answer for you or if your son takes meds but that turned it right around! She would come in and ask is today an atf day and i would explain the day and she would go out on her swing and say its. Canceled they wont let me go and she would come in again...a med change and now she giggles on the swing
She does and shes been amazing thisyear.she truly loves Jacob. This is a journey for sure
The teachers need to address the kids that are saying those things to you child
No my son didnt do complete sentence till this year he is 10 if a teacher gets annoyed and it only happened once and i put a stop to it i said why did you go into special needs teaching if you are. Talking that way she retired the next year as a hairdresser even if i didnt feel good or a kid spit. I had to maintain my professionalism. kids do hear what is being said keep reaferming how smart kind good manners you have good job jake has never had negative thoughts about himself and i never want him too
