  • My son is 10 years old and was only diagnosed with ASD last week. Although we have had lots of problems with his behaviour throughout his life, I never dreamed he could be autistic until a GP at our practice suggested it and referred us. in one way I'm concerned about it but at the same time I feel a sense of relief that I'm not the terrible parent everyone thought I was and I hope we will now get the help we need. Would be good to speak to others in a similar position xx
