Hi , over the past 2 years we have been through a very hard time with Social Services . Since both my children were very young we have had issues behavioural , educational , self harm, food
and social. The children were being assessed for A.S.D when Social Services got involved falsely accusing us of Fabricated Induced Illness and as I have Depression also accusing me of having Munchausen's Syndrome . We are now fully finished with Social Services as the social worker was found to be incompetent and our doctor , who was the Safeguarding Officer , wrote a letter stating that we hadn't made anything up .
The assessment concluded with both children having A.S.D. traits but not enough for a diagnosis. The issues with the children are getting worse and they are struggling with life ( our son mainly but sometimes our daughter ) and the problem is we don't know where to turn ,I trust our doctor but after all that has happened my husband and I are scared as we don't want Social Services involved again . What can we do , where can we go I only want a diagnosis so that we can get the help and support that our childen need . Our family is broken and we don't know how to fix it , I can't even talk to the school because of the same reason .
Please can someone give us some advice , I was going to phone the Autism Helpline but i'm scared of doing that too.i just wish that someone would believe us and help
