Help

NAS75396

My son Marley was diagnosed with autism in june, we have waited 7 yes for this and are still none the wiser if what to do. We are house bound as he is a runner and now it is affecting our youngest son. Our day consist of school and then home, We have no social life. Marley has only been allowed to attend school on a part time basis as he has anger a lot of the time. We have no help whatsoever and it's starting to affect our mental health and our marriage. Can someone help please.

  • Can you help us understand what you have done to help him with daily life? Adjustments to environment. If he likes to run is this a need to explore or escape. 

    What information do you have on the autistic brain and how your son perceives and experiences the world? 

    As for school, it can be maddening -environmental sensory overload including emotional overload due to continually being misunderstood or misrepresented, a lack of inclusion and lack of ability to connect.
