Newly diagnosed

poppy

Hello Everyone,

Im new here so hope this is in the right place...

My son is 28, and has only just been diagnosed, even though weve always known, we were always just told 'he just has Learning disabilites'

So in one way im glad i now know, but in another i wish i didnt, its so much info to take in and i dont really know where to start :(   I was told to look on this site for help and support.

So if anyone else out there is in same situation it would be good to chat.

thanks for reading this. Poppy...

  • my  daughter is 2 years old and was diagnosed in december with severe autism.

    so far we are coping ok. but over the past couple of weeks my daughter has started to wake up at 2am every morning and wants to get up and play. have tried a few new things, but without fail every morning she wakes. after a few hours of her being awake, she eventually goes back off to sleep, but come 5am like clock work she is awake and that is when the day begins. she does'nt have afternoon naps, so is full on all day. sometimes getting her to bed is a struggle.

    if there is anyone who has had similar problems please let me know how ou delt with it.
