Initially, when a family member or a friend tells another person that their child has been diagnosed with an ASD, most people don't know what to say. It is hard enough for the parents to receive this diagnosis, let alone to tell their family and friends. Often parents have reacted to the diagnosis by crying; feeling surprise, devastation, or helplessness; and/or by seeking out additional information on autism.

It's wonderful that you're so caring, and want to help someone else. I've found that most of the time people aren't ready to work with a coach until they can initiate contact with the coach themselves. In that regard, please do either of these approaches (or another I haven't thought of). Tell them how much you care about them. Why you think they'd benefit from working with me. Provide them my website to read over. And then suggest that they contact me directly.

You may suspect that your friend or family member has an eating disorder because of signs and symptoms that you have noticed. Confronting a friend or family member who has an eating disorder is a delicate matter-most people with anorexia or bulimia deny the condition.

There are many things that you can do. The most important thing is to ask them what you can do. They're the ones that know best. Listen if they need to talk, and only offer advice when asked. Avoid judging them ("attention whore," "faker," etc), and remember that they are not going to tell you everything right away. Do not assume that you know everything about them, and do not blame either them or yourself for their pain. Remember that they are a person beyond their self-injury.

Many people enlist friends and family to help keep move cost down. While this is a good solution for certain situations, if items are damaged during the move, it's generally difficult to get an insurance carrier to replace them.
