Man, that breaks my heart. What she wrote is like the textbook definition of SM. One of the absolute best places for info on SM is http://selectivemutism.org/ She can learn all about it there and what are the best treatment options. There are also some good message boards on Yahoo that also have some adults and teens with SM on them. http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/Selectivemutismsupportgroup/?yguid=108258695 & http://groups.yahoo.com/group/selectivemutism/

If she needs anything else let me know. I think it'll help her alot to just know what she's dealing with.

Samantha,


Thanks so much. This person sounded really lost, and I think those resources will help a lot.
