Resources for Teens, Caregivers & Professionals

For Teens: 5 Healthy Ways to Cope

  • Breathe Through It: Try calming apps or deep breathing.
  • Move Your Body: Dance, walk, or stretch.
  • Use Your Senses: Music, fidgets, showers.
  • Talk It Out: Speak with someone you trust.
  • Create Something: Draw, game, or build.

You don’t need alcohol to belong.

For Caregivers

Teens with autism may turn to alcohol to cope with social anxiety, masking, or sensory stress.

  • Watch for signs like mood swings or secretive behavior.
  • Start conversations gently using “I” statements.
  • Offer coping alternatives and seek neurodivergent-affirming support.

For Professionals

Autistic individuals may mask symptoms or use alcohol to manage trauma.

  • Use adapted screening tools, not standard AUD tests alone.
  • Ask about masking, sensory overload, and support needs.
  • Refer to trauma-informed, affirming care options.
