[QUOTE="LittleWolf, post: 424691, member: 66893"] Hi, I also have high functioning autism/Asperger's, dyslexia/dyspraxia etc. I often comfort ate/carb binged but got very skinny because I also starved myself/purged in between. Is your doctor aware that depression itself can cause issues with weight gain/insulin sensitivity in anyone (though I know that's not the main problem)? Congratulations on getting a correct diagnosis. Many here have suggested I may be LADA but can't get the doctor to take me seriously. I'm also young (20) But yes! Exercise has helped with my depression and confidence issues too. Your daughter's coordination will continue to improve as well as her self esteem. Glad to hear she's doing well. I've done the usual yoga/ ballet/gymnastics/ riding/skating etc. My current focus is on a fusion of Ballet and Pole Dancing. It's a taxing full-body workout but fun, improves my concentration and coordination (leaning combinations, going through ballet positions) my strength has improved (climbing the pole), posture and flexibility. I got bullied/shunned in my ballet class a lot but the girls at ballet pole all help eachother out. I always feel better in myself when I leave a class. It's my 1h 30 minutes a week to blow off steam and it gives a new set of targets to reach and something to be proud of if I learn a new spin, trick or combination.
