Struggling

Hi , I have Autism and I have just found out that my 2 year old daughter may have Autism too ( waiting for her to get assessed) .  I’m really struggling trying to manage her , she has meltdowns , doesn’t want to wear clothes or go outside . Wondering if anyone on here has Autism and has kids too , I just need some advice or tips

  • hi there, i haven't been diagnosed but I suspect I am autistic - and i am a single parent with a 4 year old. unfortunately, i cannot offer much advice or tips right now as i am really struggling myself. but just wanted to reach out and let you know you're not alone. I think it can be difficult researching and accessing support (at least for me) but i do think community support is key.
