    Oh & we used to call her 'Terrible Tori' as she kept stopping one of the games we did a while ago!
    I dread to think what you've named the rest of us! There are a lot of colourful adjectives starting with 'a'. :o

    I think you escaped in that game 66Mustang started about seeing how high we could count before Admin stopped us! Think we eventually got up to over 300 so decided we were (eventually) victorious!
    Don't know what we'll do with Jemm if they start being as 'bad' as Tori. It's good to see both Tori & Cher popping back onto the community. :)

    Welcome to the community @Jimm_Scope nice to know a bit about you. @Hannah_Scope will you let me know if there's any roles or volunteering positions I can do on this forum. I would love to be an admin on this forum even if it's not paid.

    Hi Jimm

    Not only does my son seem to have a lot in common with your hobbies (gaming and studying computer science) but I think he also faces a couple of the same challenges you have. He’s had and anxiety for over 10 years, and in the past month he has also been diagnosed with ADHD but yet to receive any support whatsoever (Am I correct I’ve seen somewhere on here you also have Crohn’s and ADHD ? ). However, he’s not great at making friends or asking for helpas he also has social anxiety.
    Wondering if you might have any suggestion please that might help him ?
    cheers

    PS are you ever allowed to talk on a one-to-one basis?

    Hello @anguish101 and welcome to the community. 🙂

    Jimm isn't around at the moment so I hope I can help instead. Can I ask how old your son is so I can try and tailor my response?

    Hi Adrian, no problem.
    I hope Jimm is ok.

    My son about to turn 21.
