First timer

Hi all. I'm a lonely sad mum who has anxiety depression and agoraphobia. My son is 21 recently diagnosed with autism level 2 non verbal. He's starting with specialist autism services next week. . I'm going to be even more down once he starts. I know it's great for him but I'm just not getting any help or support. Facebook friends have been cut because these people are not friends, they just contact you when they want something. . Sorry I just need to have a moan sometimes. X

    I don’t think you are moaning at all you are just describing the situation. I understand that you have worries about how you will feel when your son starts with specialist autism services but it could be the start of a new chapter for you both.

    Sometimes I know I can get very down about different situations but then I settle into a new routine and it doesn’t feel as bad as I imagined.

    You’ve found the right spot here to connect and get support.

    Keep reaching out.
